Post exhaust tips

Do the rectangular tips that come stock on Z28's sound better than rounded chrome tips?

LOL

Rock,

Most non-resonated tips won't make much difference in the way the exhaust sounds. Some of the "Megs" style tips will change the sounds, as will many of the resonated tips, which are often similar to a small glass pack.

Thumbs up

I prefer the round ones. They just seem crispier and taste lighter!

Just kidding. "signmaster" taught me someting I didn't know, so although a great post to poke fun at, it's also a good post to learn from. All in fun right??

Exclamation

The shape doesn't really matter too much. Size may change the sound a little but that is about it. Tips with resonaters in them will quite the sound some, but other than that you pick whatever shape you like.
