I can definitely tell you that Drone will be an issue with Borla and if you do not tune the AFM Groan will be way more noticiable too. Zero drone w/ Corsa.

Tone is the big difference... If you like the deep tone and most do then it's Borla but I've already mentioned the Con. Corsa without headers is also not a very loud system. Put headers on and it transforms to a beast.

IOM car is Bola - CGM car is Corsa

This vid was very helpful, thank you I really appreciate it. As of now I'm kind of leaning toward Borla because I really like that deep tone, and don't mind a little bit of drone. But I will be hearing my friends corsa soon, so I'll see how that goes.

It was that exact vid that made me choose Corsa

LOL... I got one of the 1st Corsa catbacks for the Auto and Russ got the very 1st Atak right before Fest #1 so while we were stopped for lunch we did the compare. Pretty sure he still has his.

Corsa = Higher Pitch, Less Drone. ATAK = Lower Pitch, More Drone. Both sound mean and both are loud with LT's. ATAK is louder without them. As far as the sound...that's subjective to the individual and what THEY think is best. My opinion...ATAK by a country mile.

I have the Corsa cat-back on my L99 SS.

It has a good tone and there's no drone at all. If you're looking for loud, it's probably not what you want.
