Exhaust

A fellow vette owner came by to see my new vette the other day and commented on my exhaust. He said it looks like Corsa exhaust and apparently is a costly feature. Is there any way I would know for sure if it is Corsa exhaust??

It should have the company name on it. Check around the mufflers.

Look on the tips, I believe they will have the Corsa name on the end.

My Corsa exhaust has the name on the top of each tip. I understand some of the older systems may not have the name there. You might want to post up a pic - it sure would help.

Went out to take a couple pics with my camera. Not sure you can tell anything by looking at them. I didn't see corsa written on the pipes anywhere.

I have a Borla exhaust. The Borla name is on the muffler itself.

BTW, what's a stock system In good shape worth? I'm sure a lot of stock C5 exhausts were left behind at the muffler shop.

I have Corsa exhaust and it doesn't say Corsa on the tips or anywhere else that I know of.

If that is a corsa system then it is the extreme as it basically bypasses the muffler.

i just changed out a BB rt 66 exhaust for something more aggressive, and there isn't a mark (brand name, etc) on it to tell you who made it. (btw, that doesn't look like a rt 66 setup)
