C6 Corvette Z06 American Racing Headers 2" Long Tube Header System (2006–2013)
For 2006–2013 C6 Corvette Z06 owners, the American Racing Headers (ARH) 2" Long Tube Header System upgrades the full exhaust flow path from the factory manifolds through a matching 3" x 3" X-pipe system, then connects at the rear axle connection point to mate with your axle-back. It’s built to help the LS7 7.0L breathe more efficiently, sharpen throttle response, and deliver a harder-edged tone under load.
