These prices seem mental - can't a good exhaust fabricator custom make some?

Fourie Fabrications have done a couple of sets for some mates; one set was 3.5" and the other was 4" I think.
The smaller ones were mated to the oem cat back and with an MRC remap made some good numbers. And at a back to back rev off with about 7 RS6/7 with various exhaust set ups, it sounded the best in my opinion.

C7 with Akrapovic Exhaust system.
Currently have a stage 1 MTM Tune.

Anyone have ideas on where to get decent downpipes to fit this?

Also- Pro's vs Cons?

Cheers

How mtm piggyback performance good?

Why you didn't chosen Miltek catback? That would solve your problems, you could just get Miltek downpipes and that's all.
Sorry, I made a typo. The tune was done by MRC.

Its good. Much better than stock. Not perfect tbh in terms of smoothness etc, sometimes it can get confused unlike the stock one.

Its much sharper and more responsive. Much quicker, so quick it broke my prop shaft within a week.

Went for the Akrapovic because of the sound. It's just right for me. It's a matter of taste u guess. Milltek sounded to loud and boy racer. Akrapovic sounds more tuned, a little like a masarati, not as deep as stock, more refined.

Thanks for answering, yes from a first time I thought you went wrong choosing piggyback over ecu remap, but when you wrote mrc everything went clear to me, strange that after ecu remap you getting minor issues, thought that if remap done correctly there shouldn't be any problems, it's like you do remap and forget everything, just sit and drive.
