    Very good! Loved it but I'm a little intimidated by removing my bumper. You make it look easy but I've learned my limits. I'd love to install the screens over the intakes in front but again, Don't want to mess with it.

      We understand your hesitation. If you ever decide to change your mind just watch the video a few times over and you'll have a good understanding of the procedure.

    Lemans makes a center exhaust where you can still use your OEM diffuser, slight modification of the center. And the exhaust sounds killer!

    • @ParagonPerformance
      @ParagonPerformance  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The Lemans Edition exhaust requires you to cut your OEM rear valance where we use a all new OEM piece from GM. With our kit you can always go back to OEM side exit if you choose.

      @@ParagonPerformance exactly why I said slight modification. I’m not sure why anyone would want to go back to the stock one. I also hate extra parts laying around taking up space. The Lemans kit is also $1,000 less. One could buy another rear diffuser with the savings. Both companies are great kits, was just sharing another option. I have the Lemans being installed soon. This one is great as well.

    You're really fast at shooting down those screws. Like the Flash.😂😂😂 Are you all planning or thinking about making a wet carbon fiber version of this?

    • @ParagonPerformance
      @ParagonPerformance  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      We don't plan on making a Carbon Fiber Rear Valance. The piece used is a OEM unit.

      @ParagonPerformance ok thank you for that. So the OEM Z06 rear valance will fit the stingray. That's good to know.

    @joem7755 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Looks good for those that wanted a center option.. On a side note I see you guys made a nice very light wight Ti non-valved exhaust, but not a valved version. I see you have one from another CO that is very $$$ , but why didnt you offer attachments for your other system? Also, I know the E-ray is not out yet but is the system and measurements the same? thanks

    • @ParagonPerformance
      @ParagonPerformance  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Making a valved exhaust either from Ti or Stainless will increase the cost greatly.
      The center exit will work for the E-Ray!

    That is a beauty!!!! Quick question, if I wanted this set up, and was ordering a new vette from factory, would I avoid paying extra and upgrading to the OEM performance exhaust?

    • @ParagonPerformance
      @ParagonPerformance  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      We would recommend skipping the performance exhaust as we replace it anyway and lose valve control

      We’ve track tested our touring exhaust at multiple locations with 20min sessions with 0 issues. The avg user won’t see those temps on street.

      We would recommend asking a local Facebook group or any of the big C8 groups. You could save yourself the money and do it at home, it's "simple" enough to do in your garage and we have these awesome install videos made for you so you can follow along.
