Overview
Improve the sound and performance of your 2020–26 Corvette C8 with a premium Redline or Legend catback exhaust from Stainless Works. We've engineered a drone-free aggressive muffler tuned specifically for the 6.2L LT2 engine. This system features an X-pipe, tuned mufflers, and quad 4-1/2" matte black or polished slash-cut double wall tips. Designed to fit to Stainless Works Midpipes or the stock manifolds and catalytic converters.
This system includes high-flowing 3" valve replacements for the AFM and Mode Switching electronics. Your Corvette will retain all valve functionality of the stock exhaust but with increased flow and improved sound.
Our Redline series is designed to get the most aggressive sound out of your ride. We design Redline systems to maximize the volume and tone of the engine, while still eliminating any drone in the cabin, resulting in a feeling that will make you want to high-five your friends in the face.
Our Legend series is designed to create our signature growl, increase volume over stock, yet maintain a comfortable cabin environment. We design Legend systems with the daily-driver in mind, improved tone with restrained loudness. A system that still gets the blood flowing, but allows for a comfortable ride.
Built from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel and fully TIG welded for strength and durability at our state-of-the-art facility in Streetsboro, Ohio — engineered for long-term performance.

Fitment Information
⚠️ IMPORTANT AFM / CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NOTE
The AFM (Active Fuel Management) valve motors will bolt directly to our "valve delete" plate which will most likely cause a check engine light. This is the correct behavior. The valve delete plate is to give your AFM motors a place to mount but removes the AFM functionality.
If you would like to get rid of the "CEL," then you will need to purchase a set of "AFM valve simulators". There are a few aftermarket companies that offer them.
