C6 Corvette Z06 Hooker BlackHeart Axle Back Exhaust 70401329-RHKR (2006–2013)
For 2006–2013 C6 Corvette Z06 owners running the 7.0L LS7, the Hooker BlackHeart 70401329-RHKR is a 3-inch axle back exhaust built for drivers who want a stronger rear exhaust section than stock while keeping the factory NPP dual-mode setup.
This system is a smart fit for Z06 owners who want a deeper idle tone, a harder edge at wide-open throttle, and a cleaner polished-tip finish without giving up the dual-mode valve layout the car already uses.
