Boy are you going to get suggestions...

Mine are Corsa Pace Car Tigersharks. Love the look and sound (although the sound has had some extra help )

I have the Corsa Indy with the classic tips. I love the system but to be honest I would prefer a little more volume. Everyone will have opinions and they will all be valid. A very subjective discussion. Best if possible to hear on the car before deciding.

Headers and high-flow cats will significantly increase how loud the exhaust sounds. If you plan on adding these later, factor this into you decision on which exhasut you buy.

so many people will give you what they have (GHLs, B&B, Corsa, and all the rest). It really comes down to your choice because all the top names do exactly what they are suppose to do add more noise (oh and a little HP).

You need to hear them from the outside and from the inside. Some people don't want the rumble in the car so they go with something that might have less resonance while others love the sound and go with somthing louder.

Finally I would also look at the reliability of the vendor selling the product in case there is any future problem.



Oh and BTW I have GHLs.

Everyone always says that the system they have is the best.
ET is right. (again ) Go take a listen for yourself.
I have the GHL's and think mine are the best.
