Awe man! Why do you have to tease me by talking about my two favorite cities! I have to wait until April before I get a chance to get back out there. I can't wait!

I listened to YouTube clips of everything I could find, and I personally haven't heard a single cat back that sounds better than Corsa.

The big drawback with clips is that you can't really tell how loud the exhaust is except in the rare instance where there are multiple cars with different exhausts in the same shot. Unless you are running professional sound on your video, the camera or cell phone you're using will automatically adjust the gain to make them all sound pretty close to the same volume. One exhaust can be dramatically louder than another in person yet sound almost the same on video.

So you either have to go to meets and hear them or trust me when I say that Corsa is exactly what you want, a very aggressive sound that won't set off car alarms as you pass them in the parking lot. I routinely make three hour trips in my car and don't get out at the end with my head ringing like the monstrosities some of these yahoos are jamming under their tails.

Do yourself a favour and start with the header. A buddy of mine has an open flash header like me and a stock exhaust (I have an mxp sp cat back) and his car sounds amazing in my opinion. Not loud but not quiet at all. Mine with the exhaust and header sounds loud at cold starts but it quiets down after. I work a nightshift too so my neighbours really love me.

Join up with your local FT86 club and check out some car meets and listen to some exhaust systems in person.
