I have a 2026 ZR2 6.2. I know it has active exhaust and in sport mode sounds good but what do you think about AWE catback exhaust or Borla? I have the module that plugs in to the exhaust flap that keeps the valve open so that I get sport exhaust sound while in normal mode but still thinking about upgrading. Thoughts ?

Only one proven to sound good on a truck is the Magnaflow. All the others are loud and sound like they belong on a Camaro. You'll thank me later for saving you $1500 and the aggravation.

Catback system or just the muffler ?

I don't think my Corsa sounded like a Camaro at all. I love Magnaflow but Corsa makes an excellent exhaust. This was my third Corsa on a truck.

If someone gave me a Corsa, I'd trade it for 3 Magnaflows. Then trade the two Magnaflows for a couple of hunting dogs and some shotgun shells.

It's a specific system for the ZR2. It has an extra resonator to prevent drone. I have a thread posted about it, as well as some sound clips.

Just remember all these fags running Borla, Corsas, AWE and such haven't used the paddles, nor have they broken 2k rpms......but they all got ceramic fucking coatings and puddle lights and headrests with a ZR2 emblem.

These same MFers are about to get in this thread now!

Here is the Magnaflow system. I'm not sure this will work with the 2025-2026 system since it changed. The website did not go past 2024 when the active exhaust came out. You would need to verify.

I don't think that will work with the sport exhaust function.

I think thats what I said, but I'd have to go back and reread it again to be sure.

Might have to go with a Corsa and some ceramic coating.

Sound is subjective to each individual and application. Try and find a truck that sounds like what you are after and inquire as to which system it is. My .02 FWIW.
