Default Corsa's Just Arrived

After hearing how nice the Corsa's sound on my son's 96 LT1, I decided to buy a set for my 86. They just arrived a few minutes ago.

$659.xx complete, which included shipping. Part # 14115/ 86-91 L98 C4ThePartsBin.com

Just in case anyone's interested.

You'll like them. Nice looking and sounding exhaust and the only aftermaket one that desn't have any resonance. I know some people don't like the sound of the Corsa's, but to each their own. I had a set on my '94 and I loved them.

After installing the Corsa's on my "91", I took the Vette to a muffler shop and had them weld the four connection joints.

After trying 3 other exhaust systems, I'm very satisfied with the Corsa's!

Congrats on the deal of a price You will love it I'm sure. My 92 will always have the Corsa on it. Yep they are a bit pricey but worth every penny. Corsa has the best fit, finish and sound (or rather lack there of... until you put your foot in it) availaible for the C-4 IMO.

Wow, thats cheap for a Corsa, maybe you got scammed? I have never heard a C4 Corsa going for that low. I think welding the Corsa will harbor rusting at the seams and this might look really ugly from the rear of the car.

Post pics & have fun!

The new L98 Corsa systems are $300+ cheaper than the LT1 systems.

Just shows it pays off to do your homework and not jump at the first price you see. I posted the website URL, so you can have a set too.
