Default Corsa Extreme vs Sport?

Trying to decide which one to get, tough choice! I was told by a Corsa tech to go with the Sport for my set-up, (Supercharged, with Long tube headers) does anyone have one installed on a Supercharged C5 in the westchester or Putnam NY area I could listen to?

Thanks

Depends on how you use the car, I suppose. The Xtremes will be VERY loud with your setup. If you can handle the noise, I say go for it. The Sports will be more tame, but easier to live with in the long run.

When I bought my C5 some 12 years ago, it came with what Corsa called their Indy Pace Car system. The car also has a Vortec blower but no headers. Both OEM cats are still in place and the system has an X-pipe. I'm not exactly sure what the Corsa equal is now (Extremes?).

What I like about my system is that it is quiet at low RPM's like driving in city traffic or even highway driving in 6th gear at 60-70 MPH. No interior resonance at all. But with hard acceleration like WOT, the system screams! Back off the gas and the exhaust note quiets down.

I have a V3 car with FBO and just switched from a sport to an extreme and LOVE it. 90% of driving they sound the same. Then at about 3K rpms the extremes wake up and start their chant to the gods of horsepower then at about 4K rpms/WOT all hell breaks loose into the greatest synphony your ears will ever hear.
