Corsa Install...question.
Can you DIY a Corsa system on Rhino ramps.....The stock tube can be cut in this case! Actually I had bought a ZO6 Ti system from Ebay two weeks ago...seller didn't clearly state that exhaust had been cut from stock pipe near rear bend (near muffler) 
so a good exhaust shop has tried twice to get a good weld (with sleeve)and it has cracked both times (wrong welding technique I suppose). 
Soooo...I decided a new Corsa would solve the problem.
I have a date next Tues with a lift but thought I might get it done this weekend. 
Next post will see if anyone wants a screaming deal on a ZO6 system in need of a welding job.

While I have not done the process, I understand it can be tricky doing the job without a lift. I think the car has to be about 30+ inches high in the rear, which I think makes for a bad situation. The right side can be difficult to remove as compared to the left side. I would wait for a lift - my .02 cents.
Have fun and be safe.

I just installed GHL this week in the driveway went real well except for the clamps that came with the system. Had the rear up 34" placed 1 ft 2x12 under tires and blocked the front wheels. Took longer trying to find clamps that would work. Take your time and it can be done it is good to have a helper.

GHL included some nice band clamps with my Bullets... What happened to yours?
