Does the Center Exit Conversion Exhaust fit a stock C8 Corvette?

Only if the car has the center-exit conversion bumper. This system moves the exhaust to a center outlet, so it needs the matching conversion rear bumper and will not bolt to the factory quad-exit bumper. If your C8 still wears the stock bumper, plan for the conversion bumper as well before fitting this exhaust.

Does it fit both the Stingray and the E-Ray?

Yes. The system fits the C8 Corvette Stingray from 2020 and the E-Ray from 2023, since both run the 6.2-liter LT2 V8 and share the same rear exhaust layout. It is not designed for the Z06, which uses a different flat-plane engine and exhaust, so confirm your car is a Stingray or E-Ray.

Do I have to buy exhaust tips?

Yes. A tip option is required with this system, and you choose between Z06-style titanium or carbon fiber quad tips at checkout. The tips complete the center-exit look and are priced on top of the base system, so budget for them as part of the package rather than an optional extra.

Will I lose the factory drive modes or valve control?

No. The plug-and-play Helical valves wire into the factory exhaust, so every drive mode carries over, including Z-mode, and the valves open and close on the car's own logic. Fabspeed backs the integration with a no-check-engine-light guarantee, so the system behaves like the factory exhaust until you want it loud.

Does it drone on the highway?

With the valves closed the system is tuned to stay drone-free at a steady cruise, so it is comfortable for daily driving and road trips. Open the valves and the LT2 gets loud and track-ready through the center-exit tips, but the quiet mode keeps the cabin civil when you want it.

Yes. Fabspeed designed it as a DIY bolt-on with no cutting or welding, using the factory hangers, and it ships with all the hardware and the NPP extenders needed to connect the valves to the car. Many owners still use a lift and a second set of hands given the weight and the center-exit tip alignment.

Description

Fabspeed Valved Center Exit Conversion Exhaust System for Chevrolet C8 Corvette E-Ray / Stingray

The Fabspeed Valved Center Exit Conversion Cat-Back Exhaust System is the ultimate exhaust solution for the C8 Stingray or E-Ray, offering the same aggressive sound as the Supersport X-Pipe exhaust while allowing the driver to control the exhaust volume using the factory loudness settings. It is a plug-and-play system that integrates seamlessly with the factory exhaust valve system, retaining all drive modes and Z-mode abilities. Their design process began with 3D scanning the entire OEM exhaust system using the CREAFORM 700 Handscan, creating a detailed Solidworks 3D model for precise fitment. After extensive revisions for sound and dyno testing, the team selected their signature cast Titanium X-Pipe to optimize exhaust scavenging and eliminate resonance. The valves are mounted to CNC-machined plates that withstand extreme heat and maintain functionality, while the mandrel-bent titanium piping, wrapped in ultra-high-temperature heat shielding, helps keep engine bay temperatures in check.

Sound

This incredibly versatile exhaust allows the car to shift from a tame cruiser to a thoroughbred race car with the press of a button. When set to the loud exhaust mode (valves open), it delivers a much more authoritative rumble at idle, with the signature X-pipe producing a high-pitched wail that, some might argue, exceeds that of the Ferrari 458. In quiet mode (valves closed), the Stingray or E-Ray is completely drone-free, enabling easy conversation in the cabin, much like the OEM exhaust.

Signature cast x-pipe for superior flow and exhaust scavenging
High-quality T304L CNC mandrel-bent stainless steel

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.
