Corsa Pace and Longtubes
I would like to hear some videos to compare those with Corsa Pace Car exhaust and LTs withOUT cats and with cats. Ive seen a few videos after searching but its hard to get an opinion from not knowing the exact mods (Most vids are very vague at listing specifics). I am curious and would like to hear the Corsa pace car with Longtubes with and without cats. If you have general feedback that would be great, if you have vids that would be better. I would prefer to hear vids from the outside of the car taking off but whatever you have works

Amen to that. I was literally SHOCKED at how loud mine was the first time I laid into it with the full exhaust.

Here's a video of my car at the track. Mostly higher RPMs with the window down so you get the idea. Sound quality isnt the best with the mic that's on my old Hi8 video camera with tape over the mic to reduce wind effect.

I run no cats with LG Pro LTs now and used to run no cats with TPiS headers and h pipe. I picked up a ton of noise in the 2250 RPM range when the motor is under load when I switched to the LG Pros. Cruising is still negligible for how loud the exhaust is at WOT. I usually have the loudest vette at the track at HPDEs.

Great vid there. 1:40 mark is what i'm looking for! Thats LTs, high flow cats and corsa pace. Sounds great IMO. Wondering how much louder no cats would make it, if any. I assume some however.

I have Corsa PaceCars and LT's w/off road X-pipe and it's LOUD. I did have cats on the setup at first but wanted a little more sound so I had them removed. Big difference with them on and when removed. I really like it though. I also added a healthy cam to the mix since then and the car sounds wicked. When I go open throttle, my friends tell me they can hear me from a mile away.

I have h/c with A.R. long tubes and off road pipe.At cruise it's not bad.I would say you get about as much tire noise as you do from the exhaust but by time you get to 4,000 rpms,it sounds like your going to hurt something.

I have had corsa pacecars for a while on stock car. I just added long tubes, cam & heads. I eliminated the cats & it still is quiet at cruise but at WOT.........I know you can hear it a mile away, NO exaggeration. It is MORE than loud. It is down right obnoxious.
