Default Exhaust...............

Does the Corsa Pace Car Exhaust sound like a motor boat at idle with a stock setup? Also, would an X-pipe be needed? Thanks in advance..

Tony

Mine does sound a little bit like a motor boat. You will also get popping on deceleration. I don't know it this would work but you could pull you midsection and open up the holes in the H-pipe. The are fairly small. Doing this would save you the cost of an X-pipe. While its down you could gut the pup cats too. Hopefully someone who has done this will chime in and tell you how much it helps. I'm going to give it a shot this spring.

My Corsa Pace Car system with X-Pipe doesn't have a motorboat sound.
