kooks n corsa or kooks n kooks?

hey guys just an opinion seeking post here.

what do the various butt dynos think about the two combos? I am looking at the complete kooks set for 2400 bucks, or kooks LT's and then the corsa exhaust. I'm not sure which one to roll with.

I haven't heard much about kooks' exhaust only their headers, but i've only ever heard about how awesome Corsa exhaust is. What do you guys know/think about the complete kooks system? Good bad?

Kooks and kooks is what we have installed here, and I really liked it. We have done a few corsas, but none with headers to this point, and being in the vette market so heavily we have always loved corsa, but the new kooks exhaust systems, are just quality and sounds awesome.

check out this Camaro with full kooks on our web page here http://www.ipsmotorsports.net/produc...oducts_id=3533

Good luck with your purchase!

Regards

We've also had two cars with Kooks all the way out and both cars sounded AWESOME! The auto's really need DOD disabled for aftermarket exhaust or they sound terrible.

Yeak JK.

Could you PM with a price? Just curious, I know the MSRP on the kooks' site is for 2400 even with the full shabang LT's/catback/mufflers etc.

I'm surprised Kooks came out with a full kit for the camaro, as far as i know it's the first car they've ever done that with. Am I right on that?

Word, that would make sense. I'm excited about seeing/hearing the full setup in the flesh so to speak. 2400 does seem pricey but Kooks is legendary for awesomesauce.

That is NASTY.

with the OEM mufflers it does sound good, but the full kit is disgusting. Not raspy or shakey sounding but has a good growl without the higher pitch sound of a corsa set.

I'm convinced!

We have installed the Kooks headers (both 1.750", and 1.875") with the 3" Kooks exhaust, the Magnaflow 3" exhaust, and both Borla systems. My personal preference is the Kooks & Kooks excellent fit, and sound. It is also easy on the pocket book at $1895 for the whole system you can't go wrong.
