Borla or Corsa exhaust?

So I'm having a real tough time deciding between the two here guys. Any help or input would be greatly appreciated. I'm gonna go with the Borla "S", or the Corsa street and either way it will be a cat back system.

Corsa is going to be a bit more tame and have less drone inside the Cabin. The Borla is going to be a little louder overall inside and out. Both are great systems! We carry both as well as a few other options, let us know if we can help!

Check out Doug Thorley Headers. They offer long tube (tri-Y config) or short tube ceramic coated headers AND full cat-back system (2.5 inch x-pipe) with introductory pricing. You could get the whole shootin' match (DT catback and headers) for cheaper than the Borla or the Corsa cat-back system alone. DT puts up really impressive numbers, sound great, and make real quality stuff. Great bunch to deal with too. Even if you don't go with them, it is worth it just to check them out. They are in the Exhaust clip thread and the vendor thread with pics, dyno charts, etc. Good luck.

How does the sound of MBRP compare w/ Borla & Corsa? I have the L99 and the drone is a concern I have when picking a system. Thks

I'd listen carefully to each. Corsa and Borla sound very different. Corsa is the best overall exhaust for someone wanting a very quiet cruise while still having an aggressive sound at WOT.

But Corsa has a unique sound (not really captured well on video) . Corsa has almost an exotic (European supercar type sound), while Borla has a more traditional (muscle car sound).
But both are unique in their own way and sound different than the rest of the exhaust out there.
Magna flow is traditionally more tame than both Borla or Corsa. Magna Flow has a mellow tone (more mature type sound).

We have both Borla and Corsa systems on our C6 Corvettes and are going with the Corsa's for the Camaro 2SS 6M.
