Designed specifically around the high-revving LT6, this system combines an exotic, high-pitched titanium exhaust note with full factory valve control, significant weight savings, and improved exhaust flow. Fabspeed rates the system at +18 HP, +19 lb-ft of torque, and a 35 lb weight reduction compared with the factory exhaust.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKey Features\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e+18 HP\u003cbr\u003e\n+19 LB-FT TQ\u003cbr\u003e\n35 lb \/ 17 kg weight reduction\u003cbr\u003e\nLightweight titanium construction\u003cbr\u003e\nSignature cast titanium X-pipe\u003cbr\u003e\nLarger-diameter exhaust tubing for improved flow\u003cbr\u003e\nCNC mandrel-bent 14–16 gauge titanium\u003cbr\u003e\nPlug-and-play Helical UK exhaust valves\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eRetains factory exhaust valve functionality\u003cbr\u003e\nRetains factory drive modes and Z-Mode\u003cbr\u003e\nUltra-high-temperature heat protection\u003cbr\u003e\n3D laser scanned and CAD designed\u003cbr\u003e\nDirect bolt-on installation\u003cbr\u003e\nNo cutting or welding required\u003cbr\u003e\nAll required installation hardware included\u003cbr\u003e\nChoice of carbon fiber tips, blued titanium quad tips, or reuse of OEM Z06 tips\u003cbr\u003e\nFabspeed Lifetime Warranty\u003c\/p\u003e  \n\n\n\u003cp\u003eFactory Valve Control\u003cbr\u003e\nUnlike an aftermarket remote-controlled valve setup, the Fabspeed system is designed to integrate directly with the factory C8 Z06 electronic exhaust valve controls.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Helical UK valves work with the factory electric actuator modules, allowing the Corvette to retain its original exhaust loudness settings, drive modes, and Z-Mode functionality. No separate wireless remote is required. \u003cbr\u003e\nThis gives you two completely different personalities from the same exhaust:\u003cbr\u003e\nValves Open: A significantly more aggressive exhaust note with an authoritative idle and the signature high-pitched titanium X-pipe scream as the LT6 climbs through the RPM range.\u003cbr\u003e\nValves Closed: A much quieter exhaust configuration designed for cruising, with Fabspeed describing the system as drone-free and comfortable enough for normal conversation inside the cabin. \u003cbr\u003e\nSignature Titanium X-Pipe\u003cbr\u003e\nAt the center of the system is Fabspeed's cast titanium X-pipe, connecting the two cylinder banks to improve exhaust scavenging while helping reduce unwanted resonance.\u003cbr\u003e\nCombined with the larger-diameter tubing, the design allows the LT6 to breathe more freely while producing the sharper, higher-pitched exhaust character associated with an X-pipe-equipped flat-plane-crank V8. \u003cbr\u003e\nLightweight Titanium Construction\u003cbr\u003e\nThe complete system is constructed from 14–16 gauge CNC mandrel-bent titanium, prioritizing long continuous bends rather than excessive welded sections.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe result is a system that removes approximately 35 pounds \/ 17 kilograms compared with the factory exhaust while maintaining strength and durability. \u003cbr\u003e\nHeat Management\u003cbr\u003e\nFabspeed uses ultra-high-temperature heat wrapping around the exhaust to help control temperatures within the tightly packaged C8 engine bay.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe electronic exhaust valves are also mounted to CNC-machined plates designed to help protect the valve electronics from extreme exhaust temperatures. \u003cbr\u003e\n3D-Scanned OEM Fitment\u003cbr\u003e\nDevelopment began by 3D scanning the complete factory Z06 exhaust system and creating a detailed CAD model. Fabspeed then designed the exhaust and manufacturing fixtures around the OEM geometry before completing multiple rounds of sound and dyno testing. \u003cbr\u003e\nExhaust Tip Options\u003cbr\u003e\nChoose the configuration that best matches your Z06:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReuse OEM Z06 Quad Tips\u003cbr\u003e\nCarbon Fiber Tips with Carbon Fiber Surround Trim\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eBlued Titanium Quad Tips\u003c\/p\u003e \n\n\n\u003cp\u003eCheck Engine Light \u0026amp; Emissions\u003cbr\u003e\nFabspeed states that the system is designed to operate without triggering a Check Engine Light and describes the cat-back as emissions legal worldwide.
