Corsa owner here. It sounds fantastic and makes the car go from almost whisper silent to sounding more like a V6/V8 engine.

Cold starts at 6am are brutal, I think my neighbors get annoyed sometimes. Also you will possibly get more attention from cops, try not to go WOT too much...

If I could do it all over again, I would choose the CSG Touring exhaust and pair it with an ace header to fly under the radar a bit more.

Jackson Racing pros:

-cheaper than Edelbrock
-makes the car sound like a Jet
-easy install (from what I’ve read)
-can install a blowoff valve for an even more unique sound while shifting
-reliable and track tested
-lighter than the edelbrock, giving you (potentially) better balance (25-50lbs from what I’ve read)

JRSC cons:

-centrifugal style supercharger, mainly builds boost in the higher RPMS


Edelbrock pros:

-Better powerband (it’s a roots style SC, lots of low end torque while still having lots in the high rpms).
-Edelbrock warranties your power train as long as you are under 36k miles or so.

Edelbrock Cons:

-slightly heavier than JRSC (50-100lbs)
-more invasive install as you have to put the Edelbrock manifold in your engine bay, on top of your engine
-mostly silent, no cool noises like JR SC.

Hope this helps in some way. I don’t know anything about turbos, lol.
