If you are not going for NCRS status, I might suggest adding QTP electric exhaust cutouts just ahead of the mufflers. Stock muffling and no resonance when you want it; anything from a little rumble to straight through exhausts when you want that. I tested a lot of systems on ZR-1s over 20 years, used Corsas mostly, finally went back to stock with the cutouts on my '95. Put them near the mufflers to preserve the spare tire carrier. Marc Haibeck did the work, but usually puts them where the spare carrier goes, I liked having a spare carrier. Crafted a rocker switch hidden under the passenger side console carpet. Here's link for the switch install http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread....xhaust+cutouts and here is one page in a very long thread on best exhasuts with info on the cutouts http://www.zr1.net/forum/showthread....utouts&page=16. --Bob
