On the bright side, there is still no drone with catless UEL header.
Hey momo, i'm currently running the OFH with stock catback, I would love to hear a video with the sound of header+corsa catback.

Cool

It's too bad Corsa does not offer a 3" option, since I am installing a supercharger. I am now looking at the PTuning 3" exhaust.

After looking at exhaust options, I am pretty sure I will end up going with the Milltek exhaust. For anyone interested, here are some pictures of what the black looks like on an STI. I don't think the black tips do the Corsa justice, but from pictures I have seen the standard polished tips look great.

This thread needs more sound, I have a Corsa catback with no other exhaust mods, and am looking at EL/UEL with front pipe and would like to hear what it will change.

Answering some questions.
Will there be a 3" version, I would assume no. Corsa specifically makes the exhausts to work with a factory emissions system and tuned for perfect sound and no drone. That being said a 3" would not be beneficial in factory form.

As for sound check Youtube.
Here is my car being tested by the techs at Corsa, They made about 4 revisions to the resonance chambers and mufflers so they could eliminate the drone in the driver compartment.
[ame="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxGagpO7OVk"]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxGagpO7OVk[/ame]

Observation:
People scoffing at the price.
You have to realize that Corsa has these made in house and your average welder is paid $20-30 an hour. These exhausts are hand welded. Muffler canisters made from scratch. They also are not like most mufflers which are just crammed with fiberglass. It is a little bit heavier than a stock exhaust system.

I want to spend the money on a corsa so bad, I'm just very nervous about losing the gorgeous sound with aftermarket exhaust components further up the chain :\

Superchargers don't need 3" exhausts. Turbo is a different story. You're just throwing on unnecessary weight/noise/drone with a 3" system.

Anything sub 350 whp doesnt need a 3" exhaust really either. A gtx28 will be just fine with the 2.5" corsa

Good News Everyone! *futurama professor voice*

Got the headers and overpipe installed over the weekend. Will be posting a video tonight once I get it all patched together.

I have had my Corsa for a month and love it. I previously had a Nameless axle back and a Q300 cat back. The other two were nice but the Corsa is perfect and absolutely zero drone. It is a great cat back exhaust.
