C8 Corvette Hooker BlackHeart Cat-Back Exhaust BH13236 (2020–2025)
For 2020–2025 C8 Corvette Stingray owners running the 6.2L LT2, the Hooker BlackHeart BH13236 is a cat-back exhaust built for drivers who want a deeper, more aggressive sound and a lighter, freer-flowing rear exhaust system than stock.
This system keeps the factory NPP dual-mode and AFM/DFM valve function in play, so it is a strong fit for Stingray owners who want a more serious sound and better flow without losing the factory valve-controlled setup.
