Exhaust System Installation
Axle Back Exhaust System
2014-Current C7 Z06 Corvette (2017 C7 Grand Sport)
PN’s 14766, 14767, 14768, 14769
Polished & Black Quad 4.5” Pro or Poly Tips
15. CAREFULLY insert the tip assembly into the cutout in the rear valence. Align the tip assembly inlet with both
muffler outlets before sliding it into place as shown. (Fig. Z & AA (Quad Pro Tips) or Fig. BB & CC (Poly Tip))
16. Adjust the position and depth of the tip assembly until it is centered in the cutout, and has an equal amount of
reveal on each side, then snug the clamps using a 15mm socket and 3/8” ratchet, leaving them loose enough for
further adjustment. (Fig. DD)
17. Reinstall the license plate. (Fig. EE)
18. Reinstall the two reflectors on each side by snapping them back in place. (Fig. FF)
19. Reinstall the two lower mesh inserts on each side by snapping them back in place. It is easier to snap the inner tabs
in place before the outer tabs. (Fig. GG)
20. Adjust the system accordingly to maximize chassis clearance while positioning the tip assembly within the bumper
valence. Verify that the valved axle pipe assemblies are not contacting anything within the chassis. Starting at the
front and working backwards, tighten the clamps to 45ft-lb using the torque wrench and 15mm socket, ensuring
that the tips are still in the desired position.
IMPORTANT NOTE DO NOT over-tighten the clamps on the tip assembly, as this will make future removal of the
tip assembly much more difficult. The C7 CORSA tip assemblies are designed to be interchangeable, between the
different tip designs and finishes.
21. Tighten the muffler tie bracket hardware at this time using a 13mm wrench, along with a 13mm socket and 3/8”
ratchet. Torque to 15 Ft-Lbs. (Fig. HH) Installation complete.
NOTE: During cold weather start-ups, you may experience an exhaust sound that is deeper and louder in tone
than usual. This is temporary and will diminish to normal levels once your engine has reached its normal
operating temperature.
NOTE: Immediately following the installation of your exhaust system, you may experience a trace of smoke
after initial start-up. DO NOT be alarmed. The smoke is caused by the burning of a small amount of forming oil
residue used in the manufacturing process.
