You're right the picture does seem to be the same, but unfortunately I'm pretty sure the parts are different. LT1s have a different exhaust set-up than L98s.

and I wouldn't recommend a Borla anyway, I've seen three different ones on three different cars and they did not hold up well.

The Corsa for C4 doesn't sound anything like the C5's at all.

The first three videos are all of the same thing from different angles.(my '95 six speed)

i think those corsas sound almost the same as my 98 c5 touring edition system!!!

on the second launch video i can hear a very aggressive exhaust,but sounds like borla to me(not in the red car)the one thats is burnout.
And i want a very aggressive sound on my l98!

The first (Borla) was not too bad for resonance. now the second clip was a bit too much for me in the resonance dept.

they are made of the SAME T304 material as the corsa. Difference is in installation, tips, and possible flow. They both have lifetime warranties. My borla system sounds great and looks great. I would have chosen the corsa for the tips but i scored the borla $300 cheaper new!!
