Fluid MotorUnion is showing a little love for Detroit this week, as we’ve started fabricating a full exhaust for a C6 Corvette.
This specific Corvette has been to our shop once before, when Eastway tuned it on the dyno and managed to release an extra 25 horsepower. We also painted the calipers blue and added a new front bumper for it. But while 25 horsepower is a good gain, once you start increasing the power, you get the itch. And nothing satisfies that itch like a custom stainless steel exhaust from the headers all the way back.
After removing the stock mufflers, we noticed that there is a hell of a lot of room back there. We were briefly considering installing Tom himself under the rear bumper, where he would just make exhaust noises with his mouth. It’s a less costly install that way, but the tradeoff is having to feed him. Since we don’t even want to do that, we assumed the Corvette owner would agree, so we decided upon a more conventional route.
Those mufflers are HUGE.
