Need help on which exhaust to get!! - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Nachos!! · 11-17-2009, 07:17 PM

I am looking at the Corsa, Borla, and GMPP offroad. I want a good, smooth sound, but the biggest thing I want to avoid is drone in the cabbin. I know the Corsa says their system doesnt have it but I was wondering if the other systems I listed have any drone. Thanks in advance!!

I could not make up my mind what I wanted to buy either, until I seen this QTP product. Normal to as loud as you want and anything in between. I am now looking for a company to install the kit in northern Ohio. Check it out, I think you will like this:

You might also want to look at SOLO. Ive had mine for 100 miles and its gets deeper and smoother.

How much and how is the resonance?

Im getting my borla system installed tomorrow. Ive heard its the best, and it sounds the best to me from what i have heard. Ill let you know how it sounds. Corsa sounds bad at idle BTW.

Bad as in good, or bad as in bad. I cant really tell by the sound clips online.

Louder the better for me, I am also undecided on which system to get.

ajp · 11-17-2009, 10:48 PM

If by resonance you mean drone, then I havent noticed any at all. Their are a few video clips on the forum, take a look at those. The price was around <$800.

Corsa on my Auto 2SS/RS

Curt@BMCPerformance · 11-17-2009, 11:09 PM

If you want to avoid drone your #1 best bet is going to be to go with the Corsa setups. You'll sacrifice a little in the overall loudness over the other systems but drone would not be something you would have to worry about. From my personal experience the best sounding exhaust i've seen on the 2010 SS' is the SLP Loudmouths. I've seen them run on Mustangs/Mopars and Camaro's and i have yet to hear a system that i think bests them in quality and type of sound they generate.

We carry a variety of options so no matter which way any of you are looking to go please feel free to ask as we are here 110% to help!!

Every system is going to have a drone at some RPM compared to stock no matter what people will say. If you are going to drive your car A LOT on the highway, consider keeping the stock as they aren't too bad. But if most of your driving is tooling around town or only short road trips, then get what sounds the coolest to you and deal with the drone that you WILL have... ALL OF THEM will have some drone... including my Borla

Nachos: I too am on the fence for exhaust. The research I have done (hours) is this summary:
Borla cat back "S" - Really good overall sound - deep (kinda concerned about highway drone) - I like the fact that they also do headers for the future would seem a great fit/sound
Corsa (only make cat back at this point that I have seen) - Ugly sound at idle but sounds like a true hot rod upon acceleration - a sweet sound - nice - Corsa owners that I know have little (A6) to no drone (M6). Corsa does not have a header system at this time. With ARH that I have heard it is very loud!
I am on the fence between these two - I have listened to Magnaflow on a vette(I know not same tone) and I personally do not care for the tone. I had flowmasters on my 2001 SS and they sounded decent but drone is a concern on the 2010
I have no other experience to offer. Mine is an uneducated but researched opinion.
