Sounds damn good to me. I can understand not wanting the drone though especially cruising the HWY

Default My experience with Corsa

I have had several exhaust systems over the years on my Corvettes. I have had Straight pipes, Borla, MagnaFlow, and SuperTrapp Systems in the past and I am the most pleased with the Corsa System. I will agree with everyone that they are not cheap but in my opinion you get what you pay for. I have installed several of them on both Corvettes of mine and friends, several systems on SSR trucks, and on a 2004 Tahoe which is my daily driver. I put 30,000 miles a year on my Tahoe and after 3 years of having the Corsa System on the truck the Muffler obtained a rattle in it. I contacted Corsa and in (2) days had a new muffler at my door at no charge. All I had to do was return the old unit and they even paid to ship it back. Having an exhaust system with over 75000 miles on it and having the muffler swapped out for free sold me that although it is not the cheapest it is the best and they will have me as a customer for as long as they offer systems for what I drive.
