Default Corsa Exhaust Drone

Is there a difference with drone between Corsa touring, sport, or extreme?

No. Just sound. I’ve had them all. Corsa is the best.

Thanks for the information. I forgot to ask. What does an x pipe do for sound or performance?

I'm not sure if the x pipe does anything necessarily for performance, but it is supposed to cut down on the crackling and burbling of the exhaust, and deceleration popping. Many people are not fans of these sounds. If you're ever going to do headers you probably just want to skip getting their x pipe since headers will come with the x pipe which will make the corsa one redundant.

I know the corsa web site at one time said the x pipe was required, but it isn't, their exhaust will hook up to your stock h pipe.

Also, I have the xtreme. Drone is a subjective thing. Some people swear up and down that you won't get drone with any setup while you're running a corsa exhaust. I have an aftermarket cam and headers, with the corsa xtreme and I get what I would consider drone around 1700 or so rpms. That's the point where I'll feel a mild resonance in the cabin, where it feels like panels are almost vibrating. But it doesn't hang around and I can easily shift up or down to avoid it.
