Borla or Corsa Catback?

Torn between the Corsa and Borla catback systems. I had a chance to hear the borla in person but have only heard the Corsa on youtube...hard to get a good idea of the difference that way. Opinions?

Corsa is what you want.

Stock ZL1 exhaust with headers is the way to go.

Don't touch the factory exhaust. Just like above - headers and stock exhaust and its a beast. Jannetty said the stock exhaust is even better than Corsa.

I had borla and corsa on my Z06

drone was less with corsa
Idle sounded way better with borla too me
they both sound wicked at WOT

on my Z06 the borla was 25lbs lighter than the corsa. I did not like how the corsa mufflers hung on my Z06.

overall I think the borla sounded better but it did drone more.

on this car though longtubes with the stock catback is where I will start. car sounds pretty mean that way.
