Help your 1953 – 1996 Corvette Exhale with an Exhaust System from Volunteer Vette
The exhaust system is a critical part of your Corvette’s performance. Its main job is to transport those nasty spent gasses out of the engine as quickly as possible. If you’ve got the wrong system installed or your existing system leaks or isn’t performing as intended, the exhaust can actually reduce your car’s performance.

When it comes to tuner culture – outside of the trusted professionals at Lingenfelter and Callaway, that are basically OEMs in their own right – it’s safe to say that we feel conflicted. This group, especially the ones out there angling for YouTube views, routinely ruins once-proud enthusiast vehicles in the pursuit of dyno numbers, tire smoke, and ETs. Their antics and relentless cut-scenes can be tough for the adults in the room to watch, and a cloud of skepticism hangs over so many of their claims.
