My best advise: Find your local NICE vette owners (with the different exhaust system) and ask to hear their ride. Or go to a corvette event AND go listen to the exhaust sound from both the inside & outside of the car. Let your own ears be the judge.

Now, as for myself... I've bought the Borla Stingers - 4 quad. Sold the Borla - Loved the sound at idle, hated the interior RESONANCE at cruisen speed.

So.... I looked & found a (very) NICE vette owner (locally) with the Corsa. Heard them from both the inside and out; from idle to WOT. Now... I have the Corsa Touring and am very happy with them. The Touring sounds deeper at idle, than the Indy. But still have the great muscle sound at WOT. Plus at cruising, you're still able to hold & hear a conversation with your passenger at a normal volume. Also, I've planned on installing headers; so I think the Corsa Touring will work well with that combo.

Good luck deciding and happy motoring.
I have corsa indys and later got a chance to hear corsa touring which would have been more to my likings......tourings you hear when you want.......indys .....there all the time!!!!!
