I love the sound of it and plan on getting it when i get my SS in a few months...Question is, is it irritatingly loud like will it tick my neighbors off all the time or does it have like a stealth mode and doesnt make as much noise when not on the gas?

I have it on mine. I have an automatic SS and it is loud during start up since the engine is revving at high rpm's. However, after you start it up, it is pretty quiet. It is only loud when you step on it, which is what I like because I dont want a loud exhaust when I am cruising, only when I want it!

I heard it is a little louder on a manual SS. Which do you have?

mpate16 · 04-16-2011, 08:04 PM

Well i dont have either yet but i plan on getting a automatic SS in the next month or so... do you have any clips of your exhaust to listen to? And yeah I feel the same way, I want it quiet somewhat when cruising but a beast when I step on it!

The Corsa can be very loud on the L99's, it depends how you drive it, I always say louder the better, so my Corsa LS3 exhaust with LT headers is very loud because of the way I drive my L99 Camaro, I always use the paddle shifters and wind out the gears.

I dont have any videos now. But on Monday in the morning, I will take a video of the start up and revs. Sound good?

My neighbors all tell me how great my car sounds...

It is pretty loud on a cold start. From outside it sounds like you are driving a lot faster than you really are because it is loud. On a cold start if I'm standing near the car and talking to somebody I actually need to speak up to be heard over the exhaust. The colder it is outside the louder the startup seems too.

With the long tube headers and the cam I'm thinking it is much louder than it would be on a stock vehicle though. I have the quieter L99 version of the Corsa too.

Mine is super loud on startup but it quiets down a bit once the revs drop. I have a few videos on youtube, feel free to check them all out.

corsa is great. sound good with stock cats. not very loud in the low RPM range which is good for what you want. keep in mind that some of the vids here have headers on the car which makes it a lot louder. make sure you get the LS3 corsa. even if you have a l99

Is it possible to put a LS3 Corsa on L99?? What is the difference?

Look at the video of the Corsa on my L99.....
