Default Corsa Exhaust Tips

Buying a Corsa Pace Exhaust soon and I am undecided on what tips to get. Looking for either the Pro series or classic tips. I am more leaning toward the classic tips because I now have Z06 Ti's on the car and I like the look of the round style, but they look like they stick out further out past the bumper then the Pro series.

Your choice, but I personally like the look of the Pro Series double-walled tips a lot more!

Good Luck!

I have 4" Pro series tips on my Corsa Extreme system. They only stick out about 1/2" from the bumper at most.

Here's my old setup with the Ti's (for some reason the tips hung kinda low):



Here's the Corsa's:



I think the Pro series tips are 100x better than the Ti's. Just my opinion though!

So, does that mean the Ti's from your car will be up for sale?

Those tips do look good. I like to 4" size of the extremes compared to the 3" pace. I was also considering the extremes, but was afraid they would be to loud. My car is stock. How do you like them?

They're probably not for everyone, but I love the Daytona tips from Corsa. The shape just goes with the rear styling, IMO. Sorry about the photo, and dirty tips, but this picture was meant to show the lack of tread showing using 325-30/19 rear tires without tubbing. This is a bad angle to view the tips, because they look larger in more straight on pictures.

Those look really nice. That is just what I was looking for. On Corsa's website they show them sticking way out which I don't like. A little out is alright with me.

Thanks everyone for your pictures & reply's. Both tips look great. Still on the fence about the Pace system or the extreme system. I don't plan on modding the car at all, just want more sound. I know both systems are loud at WOT, what about idle, part throttle and casual driving. Any input would be great.

Default Corsa Extreme

I had the Corsa Extreme with an X pipe installed at the Mid America Fun Fest and love them. Not much louder than stock at idle, deep throaty sound on acceleration. Cruise at 70 on the interstate and you just barely hear them. Around town at 30-40, they are quiet. No problem carrying on a normal conversation while driving. If you are on it all the time, they will be louder, if you just drive normally, they are like any other car on the road. My wife's first comment after they were installed was "This is what this car should have sounded like from the factory"
