Default Corsa sound clip

It's a good idea to hear what you might be getting into...
I go from idle, hold at about 2K and then on to the revs, of course .

I love the sound personally. If you have a nice set of speakers, turn up the bass level to get a good feel. These put out almost as much low "you can feel it" sound at idle as the Flows (super 40) and Dynomax's (round ultra flo) I can post those for comparison. To me though, the Corsa's sound cleaner.

On the inside, notice that you hear pulses, not droaning. I never wanted quiet per say, just no droaning. There is quite a bit of white noise that came through that isn't there in person.

Enjoy and decide what you want!

THAT ROCKS!

But after reading your profile, I guess it's not JUST the Corsa's.

But you kept the stock gas tank?

I've seen people say that Corsa's are too quiet. After listening to yours I'd have to say they are plenty loud, and mean sounding.

They sound great on a stock car and EVEN BETTER on one that's not.

Yeah, but I just saw a set in the forum mall for 159, so that might have to change. Just don't tell the NCRS guys

Thanks for the kind words, all. I am really impressed with the ability of this system be that loud outside and so comfortable (not quiet) inside.

I just replayed it on my laptop... it doesn't have the sub my desktop has!

The crack at idle sounds like a topfuel dragster idle!

Best I've heard so far! It would be nice to hear a stock LT-1 with Corsa. Anyone?
