hey guys .. does anyone have this set up on their SS ?? corsa + kooks headers 1 7/8 ? If so, any problems so far ??

no problems sounds great, no drone and screams up top.

This is a great set up..my only complaint about Corsa is that it is kind of tame. It's sound really does not have a lot of hair on it's chest if you know what I mean.

I have that setup and couldn't be happier with it. Along with a custom cam, it sounds awesome!

We are amazed at how many other Camaro owners compliment and ask about our exhaust. Really like the zero drone, too.

I love mine!

The ones I have heard are slightly raspy and not quite as throaty as I was going for... However, the zero drone is damn near priceless...

I have the Kooks Signature stepped headers and full Corsa system (+ other stuff that helps) and I love the sound. Quiet when you want it to be but oh man is it loud when you get into it. Absolutely no drone.

This Corsa has hair...

Takes a little break in before it opens up...

Corsa does not have fiberglass packing. There is no burn in or break in period. Anything with a cam will have hair on it's chest.

That being said, I have had customers order Corsa and then instantly call me back wanting something else because it is too tame. Two people have actually likened it to the same female body part. It is not a bad exhaust..just on a stock..or even car with just long tubes, it has a more exotic sound..not the muscle car sound everyone is used to.

Agree when you put Corsa on by itself it is very quiet... but Headers + Corsa and it's an entirely different beast... just like with a cam.

I've never said Corsa was the best sounding, just saying it's NOT tame w/ headers on. But with the better sounding exhuasts you have drone and Corsa you do not...

Here's and old vid w/ no cam... Corsa w/ ARH LT vs. Borla Atak w/ Kooks LT

On my two camaro's, I run Borla Stinger (PT# 140280) on the M6 car, and Kooks Street Sleeper catback (6517-Catback). I love both.
