SwitchPath Catback

Flat-plane & furious. Two distinct tones, one package. SwitchPath™unleashes a signature soundtrack out of the Z06, whether the valves are open or closed, thanks to its specifically tuned straight-through mufflers and precision-engineered x-pipe. It’s aggressive with the valves closed, and viscous with them open–just how a high-revving flat-plane V8 should be. Well-collected and comfortable when cruising (like stock), a riot when ripping, all controlled via the factory controls. If you’re planning on high flow cats, proceed with confidence as we engineered our mufflers to be fully capable of controlling those harsh frequencies. No valve relearn, ever: there's no need for a post-install visit to your local dealer for a valve relearn. Once it’s on, you’re clear for takeoff. Built for the long haul: not only does SwitchPath™ feature tier 1 OEM-supplied valves, included in every kit is a set of machined aluminum brackets to accommodate the factory valve motors and their factory linkage, keeping them away from the hot exhaust prolonging the lifespan of the electronics. Further, these valves won’t rattle a year later after installation – others on the market will. Stealth shielding: two machined aluminum heat shields bolt-on to the Z06’s bumper using factory mounting points allowing the exhaust to shine through the mesh while protecting the inside of the bumper. No exhaust wraps that will inevitably become waterlogged and cause damage to whatever lies underneath. Lighter is always faster: SwitchPath™ Exhaust: 42.5 lbs vs stock: 57.5 lbs. Topped off with quad 4.5” double-walled slash-cut tips exclusively in diamond black that fill the Z06’s bumper perfectly without any need for additional filler. SwitchPath™ does not interfere with any factory emissions equipment resulting in it being 100% emissions friendly. Lifetime warranty comes standard.

Important Notice relating to US Domestic Market Trucks & Pickups

Many US-market trucks and pickups are available in multiple cab and bed-length configurations (e.g., Single Cab, Extended Cab, Double/Crew Cab, CrewMax, 5.5ft/6.5ft/8ft beds, etc.). Exhaust system fitment can vary between these chassis versions.

Where available, we list all compatible vehicles, cab types, and bed lengths in the product description. However, depending on your exact configuration, some systems may require optional extension/mid-pipes or minor modification for correct fitment.

Because of these variations, please carefully check your cab configuration and bed length before purchasing. If you are unsure, or if your vehicle has been modified, please reach out to a StreetFX agent.
