I really want my car to sound better than stock but it just isn't worth over $1500 to me to do it. Like I said that is just me. Sounds great though.

They haven't officially announced pricing yet, but keep in mind this isn't just a muffler swap, its an entirely new exhaust system hooked up to the headers.

The great thing about the aftermarket is that we all have alot of options and you gotta find the system that makes the most sense for you.

go axle back then.

They sound great. I didn't need the video, the audio alone does the job.

philthy · 07-28-2009, 03:05 PM

They won't sell just the mufller's? I like the sound too, but have a great exhaust guy to bend up the pipes for me and put the stock tips back on. I don't need all the piping and tips, just the mufflers.

Ok guys I know everyone's wanting pictures of Merlin, along with a couple videos I just took. Hope everyone likes them!

The system is sold as that: a system. They select, calibrate, and bend all the piping in the shop to exact specs so that's why Corso won't sell the parts separately.

Take a listen on RS_Man's post - my car shakes now when it's revved - Merlin's loving being able to breathe!

Curious about two things.

1. Any gas milage increases? ( Only for long highway trips)

2. Power/tq increase is?

LadyinBlue · 07-28-2009, 08:43 PM

Hi JesseJames! So far I've only gotten to drive the car back home from Cleveland but it looks as if it's doing about 2-3mpg better right now.

The Corsa folks didn't want to keep my car from me any longer so they didn't dyno it, but I can sure tell a big difference in Merlin's get-up-and-GO!!

Sound + power + more mpg. I'm SOLD!!!

How many days did it take for them to install. I was thinking about trying to get a install this weekend if possible.

There's not much difference between the v6 and the v8 so I wouldnt expect more than a $250 decrease in price. The car sounds absolutely amazing. I'm pretty beat after driving 3 hours back home but maybe i'll get some video shot after I get some dinner. If not this evening, there will be a video tomorrow for everyone to enjoy!

GMPartsDirect has a system for the L99 and LS3 for $1199.98 with free shipping.

Ya, I am gonna have to second that. I seem to be getting 2-3 mpg better than before as well. That is pretty surprising. The stock exhaust must really be pretty restrictive. Definitely feels a little more powerful too.
