Best Full Exhausts for 1984

These are the top full exhausts for 1984-1996 Corvettes. The installation of a custom exhaust provides a great way to enhance the C4's naturally-aggressive exhaust tone, while also potentially increasing overall horsepower as well.

Our Exhaust recommendations are weighted based on a combination of performance, build quality, and value for money.

Founded in 2014, the CorvSport team has been ‘Vette obsessed for as long as we can remember. While we’ve spent nearly a decade writing about all things Corvette, we’ve been driving them for much longer than that!

In truth, at the current moment, those in search of a complete C4 exhaust package are left with relatively few options. For reasons seemingly unknown, this market appears to have never truly materialized, as it did in regard to other generations of Corvette production. The only manufacturer that has reliably produced packages of this nature over the past decade is American Racing Headers.

While other companies, such as OBX and Stainless Works do produce a limited selection of headers and other exhaust-related components for the C4, only ARH produces a complete, ready-to-install kit. Though we, at Corvsport, would love nothing more than to see a broadening of this market, with the C4's aging status, it seems at least somewhat unlikely that many additional manufacturers would feel compelled to devote time and resources to such efforts.

For the reasons listed above, our list of the Best Full Exhausts For The C4 Corvette is relatively short. Nonetheless, we still feel compelled to detail that which is offered by American Racing Headers, and their current full-length C4 exhaust kits.

American Racing Headers offers long tube exhaust kits for most any C4-specific application. These kits are composed of U.S. made, mandrel-bent 304 stainless-steel tubing, and feature meticulously engineered merge collectors with scavenger spikes. Consumers can opt to purchase an American Racing Headers C4 Long Tube System with, or without, cats included.

Most consumers would also be pleased to know that the American Racing Headers C4 Long Tube System is designed to bolt in place, with only minimum modification. American Racing Headers states that one can, "expect minimum gains of 25 RWHP", with the installation of this kit.
