i would personally be looking for something used. used exhasut systems are always poping up in the FS section. i spend alot on my car but i couldnt bring myself to pay 1000 bucks for exhasut.

My opinion: If you want a deeper sound, Borla. If you want a higher pitch exotic sound, Corsa.

I just swapped my stock for Borla dual tips on Saturday, and absolutely love it!

To me, it doesn't drone at all, but screams at WOT.

I would bet that if you ask many people out there if a old big block with side pipes is obnoxious they would say no. My first mod was a catback too, then I went to headers and ti's. Yea they dont scream at you the way it is but just about everyone I know that knows anything about cars or engines knows its not stock, but then again I dont have cats so its a little louder.

I have had these on two of my c5's with headers and an xpipe its supurb!!! Also sound good on their own and cant beat the price! check amazon may find them cheaper.
