    Maybe its the video but its difficult to hear a difference. The factory exhaust is amazing on these cars. Everytime i start my Z06 at quicktrip it draws attention.. Great video.

      I agree…. the factory exhaust is fantastic! Even with good mics it’s really hard to pick up how good BOTH stock and the Paragon Exhaust sound. I assure you there’s an appreciable difference in person AND we picked up HP/TQ and dropped 30 lbs!
      I really do like this set up and am 100% satisfied with the results.

      There was absolutely nothing wrong with the way the stock exhaust sounded at all… I do like the difference with the Paragon exhaust… it’s subtle until you’re wide open and then it becomes more apparent. More importantly o dropped 30 lbs and picked up 15 whp.😎 it’s hard to get GREAT sound capture for exhaust like these with even good mics.

    David, do you know the diameter of the exhaust tips on the Paragon Exhaust? I purchased the exhaust but I want to put some aftermarket tips and I notice the diameters are different between the inside and outside pipes. I hate the OEM screen and 4 round tips. I want to find some bolt on tips I can use instead. I notice paragon does not have the dimensions on their website.

    • @dbmracing2019
      @dbmracing2019  Před 4 měsíci +1

      I just measured them for you. The actual tips of the exhaust themselves are 2.5 inches in diameter. That’s the pipe exhaust tip and not the GM opening attached to screen. So tips themselves are 2.5 inches 😊 thanks for your question!
