Default question on exhaust

Hello,
I'm new to the corvette community and this forum but I can already tell that I made a solid choice. I purchased my first slightly pre-diven corvette (2K C5 black hardtop 12k miles) about a month ago and i'm having a blast....

My question is:
The car seems to have an aftermarket exhaust but I'm not sure what I have. How can I tell what it is? It looks like it at least has a tigershark tip. I would take some pictures to post but wanted to see if I can get an idea of what I need to take picture of....
Thanks in advance for your help.

Corsas, Borlas hard to tell without pictures! Get some catalogs and look at the pictures and compare! Oh and welcome to the Forum!

If it has a higher pitch roar rather than a Deep roar it may be a Corsa!

Take a pic of the tips and if you can get a pic of the mufflers as will it would be helpful, Just keep your camera low and point up under the car
