Default LT1 with Corsa Exhaust and long tube headers sound clip inside

Thought 'd post this little clip I just took a few minutes ago. It's my '92 C4 after installing a set of long tubes and off-road extensions. The exhaust is Corsa.

The video doesn't do the exhaust tone any justice. She sounds a whole lot meaner in person believe me, but uploading a video on-line takes a toll on the video/audio quality. It's the best I can do. It's just enough to give you an idea...

Feel free to comment.

If you want to know what it sounds like with a cam now, click the link below.

I wish I would have gone with a slightly larger cam than the hotcam though.

Details: 1996 LT4 ragtop, 44K miles, EM LT headers, high flow cats, hot cam, new rollow rockers, guide plates, Corsa exhaust.


Love the way you did the drive bys. I've yet to hear what my car sounds like at WOT, but I'm guessing that it's almost deafening.

That sounds great !!!!!!!!

One quick advice for sound clips. if its windy out.. find the microphone and put pieces of tape around it to help shield the wind.

I had no drone at any speed with the set-up above and I wasn't even running cats on the car at the time either.

Since the time of this posting, I've changed the exhaust set-up yet again. I'm now running American Racing full length stainless headers (1 3/4" - 1 7/8" stepped) - 3" xpipe, 3" intermediate pipes and into the same Corsa tail section. The car still has no drone. I'm still not even running cats.

This is why Corsa is the best exhaust on the market for these cars. It's virtually drone-free.

The car right now is just stupid-loud, but still has no drone!

I hate to dig up an old thread, but i was wondering if you could take a video of the new exhaust set up. There isnt too many videos on youtube with the ARH headers. And from the ones ive seen they seem to sound different than say EM or OBX that I have seen.
Thanks
