Default Corsa Carlisle Install

My first year at the event, WOW Got my system from the guys at ECS, then was moved over to the Corsa tent for install really cool. Thanks to all at Corsa, Paul for taking the time to show me the system and get me organized, Lauren for getting me in the schedule and Shawn and his partner (sorry can't remember) for the install. They even cleaned the area around the old pipes after they removed Took about 20 mins and I got to sit in the tent and watchYou guys were all great, and the Pace Car with X-pipe is just what I wanted. Thanks again.

Congrats on the new Corsa's.

The install alley is definitely one of the great things at Carlisle.
You've got people that are expert at doing their thing, taking care of you first hand.

Default Corsa Pace car system. . .

I just got the Corsa Pace car installed by County Corvette in West Chester, PA last week. The technicians are experts and it shows. I was a little afraid of it being too loud, but Jim Turner in the parts department told me to relax, it'd been fine. And I got a great price on the whole deal. He said once you get a few miles on it and the system gets a coating of carbon inside it, it'll get a more robust sound. I always wanted to have a corvette that sounds like a Corvette. I looked at all the exhaust websites, but Corsa seemed to be more professional and clear. And the system is warranted for life. Good deal all around.

I've had Corsa Touring on my C5 for 4 years now. They sounded good at WOT but after ECS installed ARH headers, wow, what a difference.

Were they still throwing out the old systems?I couldn't believe it first time I saw a pile of mint OEM mufflers and pipes.I wonder what the scrapper pays or gets paid to pick these up.

Can't go wrong with the Corsa exhaust. Good deal that you were treated so well at the show and got the exhaust installed.
