Thumbs up Corsa exhaust

Put on the Corsa cat back the other day,
installation took about 1.5hrs and went fairly smoothly.

My first thoughts were how great the corsa tips look.
Once we started her up for the first time we noticed very little difference.
The exhaust is basically silent at idle.

After breaking it in now on day 5 I have noticed a Huge difference in sound. It's gotten louder and the lows seem to be heard a lot more

I think once paired with my Roto-Fab CAI we will be in business.Name:  2012_0223AE.jpg

I'm thinking of getting the Corsa. Looks like you've been running yours for a few weeks now. How are you liking it?

The Corsa CB exhaust is definitely a quality piece of work. I loved mine when I had it. Congrats, looking great =D

And thank you again!

Corsa still seems to be the benchmark when it comes to "The Best Bar price" Catback.

Pricey, but it's the best that there is out there.

I've been debating whether to get the Corsa along with the CAI cold air intake for about 2 weeks now. I want to make sure it's worth it. Are you really feeling it or is it ok?

If you want to really wake up the sound add high flow cats, I put on a set of JBA high flow cats to my stock manifolds and it is now at least three times louder.

im running it with the roto fab cold air, the cold air allowed the engine to roar instead of whine. so its a good pairing

Thanks! I'm looking for something with a great sound but zero drone. Sounds like the Corsa is going to do the job.

OP excellent choice. You can't go wrong with Corsa and yes those tips are some of the very best in the business. If ARK didn't exist, this is the only catback that would go on my car. I think it's these 2 and then everyone else in terms of quality, fit and finish. It sounds very good on the LS3 too. Prolly my favorite. Just nice and mannerly at idle and part throttle and then snap it turns sinister and evil at WOT.

Totally agree. Had mine for a year along with Roto-fab CAI. Tone got louder and deeper over time, then leveled off to what is perfect for me.

Yep, no drone at any time.

Not wake-the-neighbors loud, but that is not what I had wanted.

Very happy with Corsa.
