C8 Corvette E-Ray NPP Valved Cat-Back Exhaust with Quad Stainless Tips (2024-2026)
Want your E-Ray to sound like the V8 is doing the work? The AutoSpeed Performance Series Cat-Back Exhaust, ASP-EXH-CBK-GM-0001-PS, is a valved cat-back for the 2024-2026 C8 Corvette E-Ray with the 6.2L LT2 engine. It runs on your factory valves, so your quiet and loud modes stay exactly where they are.
With the valves open the note comes in deeper and louder than the factory NPP system gives on its own, and four polished stainless tips sit 4.5 inches across in the rear fascia. A cat-back only touches what is behind the catalytic converters, so the front axle, battery and eAWD system are nowhere near it.

Benefits
- Your drive mode still runs the exhaust. Quiet in Tour, open in Track, nothing to switch.
- 22 more horsepower and 10 more lb-ft at the wheels, measured by AutoSpeed against a factory Z51 exhaust on 93 octane.
- 9.5 pounds lighter than the 77 pound factory cat-back it replaces.
- Nothing is cut, drilled or welded. Your factory exhaust bolts right back on.
What to Expect
- A deeper C8 exhaust note the moment the valves open, and the same silent pull away on the front motor.
- Bright quad tips filling the rear fascia, finished to match the factory stainless.
- The V8 finally sounding like the thing moving the car, not the quiet half of a hybrid.
- A highway volume you can enjoy, the valves closed and the exhaust running through three chambers before the tips.
Important Exhaust Notes
- Your car supplies the valve actuators. The kit ships valve bodies without motors and reuses your factory AFM and NPP actuators. An E-Ray without factory NPP cannot use this system.
- No tune is required.
- A valve relearn is required. Your AFM and NPP valves are relearned with an OBD scan tool, per GM Document ID #5406413. Skipping it can cause a check engine light and damage the valves. Any Chevrolet dealer can do it.
- Professional installation recommended. About three hours on a lift, with the rear wheels, wheel liners, air deflectors and rear bumper fascia off.
- The install guide gives a torque figure for every joint, 44 lb-in through 60 lb-ft, including 75 lb-in on each actuator bracket. Have a torque wrench ready for those figures.
- Re-torque the tip clamps after the first heat cycle.
