Default Kooks Headers, Cat Delete, and X-pipe... Just Installed Corsa

I just installed the Corsa exhaust and it is MUSIC TO MY EARS!!!!!

I found myself turning the radio down just to hear the exhaust note . My average MPG went down to 10.1 MPG becuase of all the WOT runs I made .... This exhaust was worth every penny.

Far less drone than the M2W open, and much more aggressive, although at cruise it is quieter.

I am very happy with this exhaust

Default 1500 - 1800 rpm on 6th gear

slamar1,

Would you be so kind and run some test for me. I too have the corsa sport on my '06 Z. My issue is that I do get a little drone between 1500 - 1800 rpm on 6th gear cruising speed. I'm also thinking of adding a headers. But before I do, I'd like to get an idea as to how this corsz + headers package sound like. Under WOT, I love the sound. Currently, the drone I get with just the corsa as mentioned above is livable. Thus, my curiosity with how it sounds with headers under those condition (1500 - 1800 rpm on 6th gear cruising speed). TIA. BTW, congrate on the upgrade & enjoy!

My bet is it will be louder with headers but I don't know.

Did you feel when you added headers, it made a SOTP difference?
