Deeper Tone, Bolt On Installation: Transform Your Exhaust Sound Today
The Kooks 22606260 3-inch axle-back exhaust system delivers the perfect balance of aggressive V8 tone and daily-driver refinement for 2016 and 2024 Camaro SS models with the 6.2L LT1 V8, featuring mandrel-bent T304 stainless steel tubing, high-flow straight-through mufflers, and quad 4-inch black ceramic coated tips that provide dyno-proven gains of 15 and 20 rear-wheel horsepower and 20 and 25 lb-ft of torque while maintaining zero interior drone at highway speeds.
Designed as a direct bolt-on replacement from the factory axle pipes back, this system uses OEM hangers and clamps for easy installation and retains full compatibility with factory Active Exhaust valves (where equipped) for seamless switching between Quiet, Normal, Sport, and Track modes. The black ceramic tips resist heat discoloration and add a stealth-aggressive look to the Camaro’s rear fascia.
For Camaro SS owners seeking deeper, louder exhaust note with real performance gains and no drone, the Kooks 22606260 axle-back is the complete solution for street, track, or show.

- Q: Does it keep Active Exhaust valves?

A: Zero drone in Normal/Touring modes - Do Kooks headers require a tune after installation?
Yes. A professional tune is strongly recommended after installing long tube headers. The significant improvement in exhaust flow changes air fuel ratios and requires ECM recalibration to achieve optimal power output and safe operation. - Will these headers void my factory powertrain warranty?
Under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, a manufacturer cannot void your vehicle warranty simply because you installed an aftermarket part unless they prove the component directly caused the failure. Consult your dealer for specifics on your situation. - Q: Do these Kooks headers require a tune after installation?
