Corsa Cat-Back LS3 FEEDBACK wanted.

I heard some sound clips, they sounded very raspy. The clip from Corsa the catback sounds ALOT better, not raspy at all. Can Corsa owners please comment if your car sounds like the video below from Corsa?

I KNOW there are other exhaust options, please stay on topic with Corsa ONLY.

I have friends who've owned Corsa systems before and raspy is the way all their cars sounded like (from Vettes to Stangs to pickups).

Corsa is defintely not the sound I'd associate with the Camaro. Too European IMO.

Go listen to the the Magnaflow #16483 with headers....alot of people like that one. You can then sell your Corsa system for about what you can buy the #16483 (JDP Motorsports) for.

I know there are other options, My car is stock except the Vram.
Headers, cats etc will make it more raspy I know.
Trying to get feedback from guys with stock cars with Corsa.

I have Corsa cat back on L99 and Corsa cat back with AR LT's and Flowthrough cats on My LS3.

I personally love the sound on the LS3 with LT's and Flow through cats but I am sure it isn't for everybody. It sounds mean. Maybe a little too much for some but is quiet as a mouse if you want it to be. Get on it and the world will Know !

I like the fact there is no head pounding rumble on the inside of the car like other systems I have tried in other cars.

L99 with Cat back Corsa is a little on the quiet side and I would say it sounds similar to the video. I haven't heard it on a drive by Because I havn't been around when my wife was driving it. Other than leaving the house.

( Both Cars are Supercharged so I don't know what difference that makes in sound)

I do know you can hear the blower with the cat back only, Not with the LT's and Flow thru cats

Hope this is somewhat informative. I would post you a clip but Cars are put away...foot or so of snow here!

i have the corsa catback on my ls3 camaro and its awsome. i like the fact that theres no drone and that is very mellow sounding just crusing or at idle. and if you get on the gas it screams. the sound is more like a corvette z06( at least to me). the video is close but it sound so much better in person. if your looking for a more old school sound this is not the exhaust you want. if your looking for a exhaust that gonna sound great and be different then the corsa is a great and this exhaust is not raspy at least to me. feel free to ask me anything else about the exhaust and ill try to help.

I have Corsa cat back on my LS3 and it isnt as raspy as i thought it would be. Still sounds great though, poster above was correct on it sounding like a Z06.

I do recomend this system for its ZERO drone! One of the reasons i got it.

Same here I heard the Corsa on an LS3 manual and it's a little very little raspy but the selling point for me is no drone when cruising. I will probably be ordering soon I just wanna hear the borla first.
