Angry SLP Headers NOT compatible with Corsa cat-back

So I currently have a full SLP system on my 2010 Camaro SS and pretty dissatisfied with the sound (extremely horrible drone). I bought a Corsa cat-back and found that it is far from compatible with the SLP long tube/hi-flo cat set up.
Issues:
-SLP system went from 3" to 2.5" via resonators. (So it's 3" at hi-flo cats)
-Location of cats are not where the Corsa system meets up. (About a 8" away)

I'm posting this because I could not find anything online about this set-up (SLP + Corsa)

Frustrating.

The Corsa catback replaces the stock catback at the same exact point and with the same clamp; right behind the cats.

I've seen most LT headers and cats/pipes will replace the exhaust manifolds and cats and meet up with the stock catback, or most aftermarket catbacks, like the Corsa.

Maybe try searching for SLP headers and cats with stock catback? There nothing special or out of the norm with the Corsa catback connection point/method.

Maybe all you need is new cats?
You can certainly fab what you're missing.

That's your fault for not doing the research not SLP's or Corsa's. Try to sell your headers and get headers that have the stock connection point at the cats.

SLP has two header packages - one for stock exhaust and one for their crossover pipe assembly. Sounds like you got the latter. It would seem that you just need to change the pipes from the cats to the exhaust no?

Weird my SLP headers to tip system with the SLP X pipe and it is 3 inch all the way back with the LM1 axle back. I guess the other axle backs from them reduce....but the drone is just about unbearable, can't hear 2000 watts of stereo over drone.
