I've got the B&B PRT's with a Magnaflow x-pipe. I really like it, to bad the x-pipe gets rid of the burbling sound.

You'll get lots of different opinions on this one. I like my B&B Route 66 quad oval exhaust.

What do you really want out of the exhaust - lots of noise, just a little more than factory, ????

I want it to sound good but still be able to hear and talk inside the car. There has got to be a exhaust that you get the best of both worlds.

You can always see if there is a forum member that lives close to you and willing to listen to their car.

Personally, I like the look of the Z06 ti's, and their sound when complimented by long tube headers. IMHO best of all worlds.

Sounds like you want the Corsas over the Borlas. Before you make a snap judgement though, you should listen to people's exhausts. Go to a car show and ask folks to fire them up. I haven't had one person tell me no yet.

Good luck!
