How about taking an audio/video of both before and after, and sharing here in your thread (OP)?
Same with some others watching this thread, who have the modded Ti's (etc), let's hear them, with an audio/video posted here in one thread, for comparison.

I think I'll do that.
I'll check to see what takes better video, a camera or my phone.

I guess you made your decision. Personally don't like the motorboat/dumptruck idle. Here is someones with Headers and TI exhaust. Nice hum at idle and screams high up top.
Heres with the bypass mod

It will definitely be louder than your Tis - whether it will be too loud for you is something only you can answer.

Eh, I could see maybe the idle not being the best tone, But as far as hearing the cam lope, I think corsa is the loudest. Borla stingers sound good, but the cam lope is not that audible, same cam and same car just switching cat back and the corsa will have a better lope at idle. Driving and WOT, the corsa sounds amazing and one of the few with no drone even with a cam and no cats (of course imo)
To me, the Ti just sounds quiet and then when revved (above video) like a tin can. It sounds ok but I couldn't stand it. Some people love it... Sound is all opinion and subjective.

I don't know that much about Corsa, but have several friends that run them.
I went with B&B PRT's on mine early on after purchasing it 8 years ago. I was fairly loud back then. Now over the years adding headers, heads cam etc, it's really loud at WOT. But what the hell, you only live once

I have long tube headers, x pipe, corsa xtreme and cam and without cats it was really loud.....too loud I thought and I like loud. Had to put a custom built resonator in behind the x pipe and that improved things. Still loud but not obnoxious ( until I really step on it ).
If I was doing it again I would not have opted for the off road x pipe

Well guys, it looks like my wife had OTHER plans for me this past weekend..... 
and I never got around to my exhaust swap.... 
But by all means, keep posting videos of the Xtreme vs the Ti's.
