Default corsa x-pipe question

So i was thinking of ordering a corsa extreme axleback and i was wondering does the x-pipe do anything besides a slight hp+ along with eliminating the popping sound?

Corsa representative said for mid 2007 on the pipe was not worth the extra money. Might be a slight gain, but was not worth the extra cost.

I have a 2007 convert and added the corsa sport and X pipe and am in love with it. The research I did showed that if you are not planning doing heads the extra cost will get you a few extra HP's but not a ton. I was sold on the fact that it may help a bit on torque. I am glad I did it but cant tell you what it was like without the x pipe. I can also tell you that the car does tons of crackling gurgling and pops when I let off the gas!!!
