K&N intake with Corsa performance exhaust
I just installed a Corsa Cat Back 149532 and a K&N Air intake 63-3075 on my 2010 Camaro V6 automatic RS. I am totally thrilled with the sound. I know everyone’s taste in sound preference is different but this was the exact tone I was looking for. I would describe it as a deep, muscular, refined tone. Not raspy, no snap-crackle pops, no cabin drone. For me Corsa nailed the sound I wanted perfectly. I think it looks great as well. I’ve attached my sound clips… the live sound is far better than these sound clips I recorded today.
Revving Corsa Exhaust 14953 on a Hard Acceleration - Corsa Exhaust 14953 on a Hard Acceleration Drive By - Corsa Exhaust 14953 on a Easy Drive by then Hard Acceleration - Corsa Exhaust 14953 on a Hard Acceleration from in the vehicle - Corsa Exhaust 14953 on a 45-50 MPH Drive By - Corsa Exhaust 14953 on a I am also including the before after Dyno. Not a huge performance increase but I was going for sound and looks and at least no performance loss. Dyno Legend Red Line = Before everything stock (Run conditions - 90.67 degrees, humidity 42% - average run of 5 pulls) Green and Blue Lines = After installing K&N 63-3075 air intake and Corsa 14953 Exhaust. stock (Run conditions - 92.38 degrees, humidity 42% - worst and best pull out of 5 pulls) This was a tough decision for me, as I am sure it is for you, but I could not be happier. I hope this info helps you with your decision. |

I think Corsa's sound is way too aggressive for my taste.
But It doesn't sound too bad w/ the K&N aircharger. I was thinking about going with the JBA axle-back exhaust, but then my Bro started talking me into a Cat-back.

Sounds nice, But I'm looking for CAI that'll give me the most HP gain, and shorty headers/cat back exhaust that will give the most hp gains as well. But your exhaust sounds nice.....

Awesome sound! Mine is on order from GMpartsdirect (over 1 month). Did the K&N CAI make a difference in the sound?

Question...why are people wanting to go with a cat back exhaust? I was under my car today in the muffler shop and it is all mandrel bent right from the factory. There is an H-pipe instead of an X-pipe, but I just don't see the advantage of replacing a mandrel bent system with a mandrel bent system? Maybe I'm missing something?
Looking at it, I think the biggest gains would be to get rid of the suitcases in the rear and put some overnight bags on. Or...maybe I'm missing something.... |

I'm going in for a custom exhaust today, and my Guy actually talked me out of a cat back. He said the difference in pipe size is negligible so there wasn't a point in spending the extra money. Just my .02¢ though

Losing resonators I think would have huge effect on sound. Which in most cases people are trying to improve or lack thereof.
