Borla ATAK Axle-Back Exhaust System (11903CB) - 2015-2019 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Z06 & Grand Sport (With NPP / Without AFM)
Unleash the loudest, most aggressive, race-inspired soundtrack available for your track-ready supercar with the Borla ATAK Axle-Back Exhaust System. Custom-engineered specifically for 2015 to 2019 Chevrolet Corvette C7 Z06 platforms and 2017 to 2019 Grand Sport models without chassis-level Active Fuel Management (AFM) valves, this premium aftermarket upgrade delivers an uncompromising roar while keeping full compatibility with your factory multi-mode exhaust. ATAK (Acoustically-Tuned Applied Kinetics) technology relies on vehicle-specific internal muffler cores that are precisely calibrated to focus sound waves into a high-definition, earth-shaking V8 growl under heavy throttle. While the exterior volume remains fiercely intense, Borla's painstaking engineering ensures the interior cabin remains devoid of harsh resonance or drone during highway cruising. Constructed with a high-flow 2.75-inch pipe diameter, this free-flowing layout optimizes exhaust gas velocity and scavenging to unlock hidden horsepower and sharpen throttle response on high-output engines.
What sets the Borla 11903CB apart is its selective integration of integrated exhaust valves combined with a stealthy aesthetic. This system does NOT contain AFM valves but comes fully equipped with premium mechanical NPP dual-mode valve assemblies. These internal assemblies seamlessly accept your factory electronic valve actuators, allowing full retention of the Corvette's drive-mode steering wheel or dash-controlled sound profile adjustments. Fabricated entirely from premium, aircraft-grade T-304 austenitic stainless steel, this setup is vastly superior to budget aftermarket alternatives or factory T-400 series alloys (such as 409) to provide permanent protection against deep rust, moisture corrosion, and structural cracking. Precision computer numerical control (CNC) manufacturing and ultra-smooth mandrel bends ensure a direct, line-to-line bolt-on slip fitment. The center-exit rear section is finished with a stunning set of quad 4.25-inch round, rolled angle-cut intercooled ceramic black coated T-304 stainless steel tips for a stealth appearance. For a complete exhaust overhaul, this axle-back can be paired with Borla's optional mid-section X-Pipe (Part #60548) to create a full Cat-Back system.
