Corsa Catback Exhaust

I have been shopping for a Catback exhaust for a few days now. After watching a lot of videos I've decided that the Corsa (to me) has the best exhaust note. It seems to be nice and deep and not raspy.

does anyone here have it or has heard it in person at all? I'd like to get some input from the community. Also feel free to suggest other options as I am still on the market.

Here's what the Corsa sounds like:

I've had it for a year and a half. Very comfortable sound at cruising speeds. A few people have told me it is loud though. It doesn't seem that annoyingly loud to me, but makes me hesitant to pair a header with it like I would like to. Like most exhausts it sounds better in person than in the videos. The build quality is very good also.

I'd say if you plan to only get a catback, go for it. I also thought it had the best sound when I did my searching a while back and still do. If you plan to get a header/FP/etc in the future though, you might want to consider something like an Invidia Q300 or a Perrin instead as they are a bit quieter.

Thanks! I am still on the fence in regards to a header. I got an OFT coming in tomorrow. I'll see how it feels after a tune... I am no looking to make this a speed demon so if i like the power there I may just skip the header.

I've got one. Love it! Very easy to adjust so everything looks straight. Sounds great, still looks new after over a year and a half.

I'm also looking to get this exhaust, sometime in the next two weeks. From the videos, it has a hint of exotic with a touch of muscle (expected since Corsa deals with muscle cars). I absolutely love it.

The few local people I've asked who have heard it says it sounds amazing.

IT's nice, I heard them they are nice.
Don't buy an exhaust that's too load so it forces you to do sound deadenings later down the road like me.

*ppl always told me my exhaust sounds nice but inside the car it's really annoying on long highway trip...lol

For me the road noise from the tires is still louder than the exhaust when at cruising speed. I drive two hours a day with this and have never gotten annoyed by the noise.

I just picked up the Nameless axle-back today. It's got some bass to it from the videos I've heard. I will be installing mine in the next few days. It is the 3" axleback with 5" mufflers

I had the Nameless axle-back, great sound but drone in the 2000-3500 RPM range on mine, 2.5 inch with 5 inch mufflers. I now have the Corsa Cat-Back and love it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Perfect sound and no drone. On the interstate, you hear it but it is not annoying, overly loud and does not drone. When you get on it, the sound is there and it makes me smile every time. I purchased mine from Amazon also for $888 shipped. Hard to beat Amazon's price. Good luck as exhaust sounds are definitely a personal preference. I also had a Invidia Q300, too quiet even for an old man like me.
