From what I have read there is not much for horse power increase, merely a sound difference.

I have the corsa touring and really like them. A comment was made about your hearing ability and that is great. If you are like me with hearing that it too tuned then Corsa Touring is the way to go. Hell even my home stereo and theater area have very high end speakers and tuners etc but my wife can't tell the difference.

Many feel the corsa touring is too quite but I felt they were just right. As a daily driver I would think you would not want any drone. Best advise is to go to a show and shine and have a listen.

My .02 worth.

Bill

The tips are tough to get straight, I still need to get in and have them done.

You should actually consider doing headers first. I have the Stingers and American Racing Headers. I bought the Stingers first think it would be my only upgrade on the car....

I bought the Stingers with the Borla X-Pipe. Then, a year later I bought the headers, but found I had to use the X-Pipe from the header manufacterer. So I sold the Borla X-Pipe to a forum member.

If I were to do it over again, headers first with stock exhaust. You will get performance gains and a sound difference this way. With an exhaust only {cat-back} you won't feel any power changes despite the claims {IMHO} but get some noise and different looking pipe tips {barely}.

You can the gauge your sound from there. Alot of forum members state they really like the stock exhaust sound after headers. You see nothing sounds like headers...
