Depends on how loud you want it to be. For me, Borla touring behind long tubes with a cam is just a touch too quiet, but far better to be too quiet than too loud. No drone at all. Your best bet is to listen to each system and decide that way. The right exhaust note is pretty subjective.

That said, If all you are doing is exhaust with no other mods, Corsa will make your car sound like you’ve backed it into a lake.

Find a Z06 complete system someone took off, manifolds, cats, Xpipe, and mufflers. About 30hp over a stock C6, will pass smog, no drone.

My 08 C6 just has the cat-back ATAK by Borla on it. Quiet when cruising, beautiful note when opened up. Also probably the least expensive option.

I did a BUNCH of research before ordering my exhaust for my '08 C6M; Go Corsa Sport.... quiet below 2000RPM and NO DRONE AT ALL !!! ZERO !!!!
Above 2500 RPM it REALLY comes alive and sounds awesome! Race Car sound !!!
