Corsa vs. Borla Atak Catbacks
Stuck between these two for my l99 A6. Hoping some of you can help me decide. Which one is louder? Which has less drone? And just all personal opinions will help. Also, does it matter to wait a certain number of miles before installing a catback? (assuming the car is brand new)
Edit: And I have listened to many videos, but videos don't help much.

Have you checked out Kooks Exhaust? They sound awesome as well.

Corsa is amazing. Won't ever run anything else on my cars. It's louder then the Borla Attak for sure but neither system has any drone which is great. And no it doesn't matter how many miles are on the car before installing a catback

I am not convinced that Corsa is louder than the Borla ATAK, but I admit I have never heard the two in person to compare them. All I am sure of is that the ATAK is the loudest I have heard, (not used in conjunction with headers of course).

I've heard them both side by side, and while they both sound great I think the Corsa system is louder

How were the differences in the tone? Were they similar or is there a noticeable difference in the pitch or "deepness" in sound? I'm really looking for a deep, aggressive, loud, sound. If corsa fits that, I'm sold.
