Does the Fabspeed Valvetronic MaxFlo Exhaust fit every C8 Corvette?

It fits 2020 and newer C8 Corvettes with the 6.2L LT2, but only cars ordered with the factory valved exhaust, the NPP option, because the system integrates directly with those OEM valves. It will not work on a C8 that left the factory with the standard non-valved exhaust. It bolts to the factory connection points, so no cutting is needed.

How do the valves work?

The system ties into the car's factory NPP valve control, so the two modes switch at the press of a button with no separate controller or app. Valves open give an aggressive, throaty muscle-car tone for spirited driving, and valves closed pull the sound back to a refined, neighborhood-friendly character for daily use and cold starts.

How much power does it add?

Fabspeed measures its gains against the factory valved exhaust, not a non-valved car. With the valves closed it returns peak gains of about 11.5 whp and 10 lb-ft, with curve gains as high as 14 whp and 15 lb-ft; the open-valve setting adds a smaller margin at peak. No engine tune is required, and pairing it with Fabspeed's Sport Cats adds more.

Is there drone, and will it throw a check-engine light?

Closed mode is tuned to be refined for daily driving, which keeps cruising drone in check, and the kit includes two AFM simulator plugs. Fabspeed recommends keeping the car in a V8 drive mode to eliminate any possibility of a check-engine light. No tune is needed to run the system.

What is the Fabspeed Valvetronic MaxFlo Exhaust made from, and how is it different from the Supersport X-Pipe?

The Fabspeed Valvetronic MaxFlo Exhaust is built from 3-inch stainless steel and is roughly 20 pounds lighter than stock. The difference from the Supersport X-Pipe is the valves: the MaxFlo switches between quiet and loud, while the Supersport is valveless and always vocal.

What tip finishes are available?

The MaxFlo is offered with a choice of four tip finishes: polished, satin black, carbon fiber and titanium. All four use the same valved stainless cat-back underneath, so the choice is about the look at the rear of the car.

Description

Fabspeed Valvetronic Maxflo Exhaust System for C8 Chevrolet Corvette

Give the C8 Corvette a dual-personality soundtrack with Fabspeed’s Valvetronic Maxflo Exhaust System, calibrated to switch between two distinct modes at the press of a button. Open the valves for an aggressive, hard-hitting tone with tangible power on throttle; close them for a refined, neighborhood-friendly character while cruising. An integrated X-pipe sharpens flow and layers in an exotic mid-engine accent while highlighting the classic American V8 lope. See the videos below to hear it in action.

Power

The factory NPP (valved) exhaust flows well with the valves open, but becomes restrictive when closed. Versus the NPP with valves open, the Valvetronic Maxflo Exhaust produced peak gains of +4whp and +6ft-lbs; in valves-closed mode, it delivered peak gains of +11.5hp and +10ft-lbs at the wheels, with curve gains up to +14hp and +15ft-lbs. Whether quiet in valves-closed or ripping in valves-open, the Valvetronic Maxflo Exhaust maintains strong flow and delivers real power, with even greater gains expected compared to the base non-valved system.

Additional Information

The Bulletproof Automotive website contains many thousands of products purchased in multiple different currencies. All of the prices are entered manually and accurately at the time of entry. Due to the consistently fluctuating international exchange rates, at times prices may not be able to be honored at their original intended rate. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, unfortunately our website is unable to compensate dynamically for what can at times be volatile changes in the cost of items due to currency values fluctuating, changes in prices from suppliers, changes in shipping and import duties, and other factors. Rest assured that any order you place on line will be at zero risk to you in this area. If in the event your order cannot be fulfilled at the original intended website price we will offer you a 100% refund, no questions asked. We will continue to do our best to maintain updated prices and we will always continue to offer our price match guarantees as well to ensure our prices are always the best for you. In short, prices may change without notice. It is always advised to give us a call prior to placing your order online to confirm availability and to confirm current pricing.

Shipping Policy

Items that are in stock in the US, either at Bulletproof’s warehouse or at a supplier’s warehouse, are generally delivered within 7-10 days. Special order items from overseas take considerably longer. As a courtesy Bulletproof offers delivery estimates to our customers which take into consideration manufacturer availability and shipping schedule. These estimates represent our best guess based on previous orders from the manufacturer and do not in any way imply a guaranteed delivery window. Many manufacturers work in a “just in time” inventory system and often take 2-20+ weeks to produce an item once an order is submitted. All deliverable items are then sent to our Japanese warehouse. Bulletproof ships a minimum of one full ocean freight container every month from Japan, oftentimes more than one a month. Ocean freight takes an average of 4 weeks. Typically it breaks down to one week in Japan for paperwork and customs, two weeks by boat and one week in US customs/clearance. Due to the wide number of variables between manufacturer and shipping schedules, delivery estimates are simply just that – estimates. We attempt to estimate conservatively and we usually deliver faster than our estimates suggest. It is not Bulletproof’s policy to guarantee delivery time of any special order item, this is impossible for us to do. By ordering you acknowledge that there is no required delivery ETA and an order may not be canceled or altered due to manufacturing or shipping delays, all ETA’s are provided as a best guess only. Please review the full Terms & Conditions here.

BP Pricing Difference

We do pricing a little differently on our JDM brands and we believe in making things simple and clear. No hidden fees or surcharges. Every price you see includes the shipping cost to our office in Los Angeles, California and all the associated taxes/duties/fees for bringing the products into the US. The only shipping you ever pay is from our facility in the US to your location. Be wary of resellers that don’t include the cost of international shipping in their pricing on JDM parts. While we believe we’ll always have the lowest all-in price on JDM products, we offer a price match guarantee for all authentic parts purchased from authorized dealers as well. For many international customers, it’s much more affordable to ship from the USA than from Japan directly, as the air freight and ocean freight costs are typically much less. However, for customers looking to ship directly from Japan outside of North America, or domestically in Japan, we can provide pricing specifically for that scenario. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any pricing questions or concerns. Please email us at sales@bulletproofautomotive.com with any inquiries.
