Default The way to go...

Before I did additional work to my baby, I had a corsa sport exhaust, cross pipe (with the kooks headers) all jet coated, and I really loved the sound. It also attracted more attention...

My question is can I achieve my objective with the various "partial exhaust" systems (cat-back?) out there? If so I'd love to hear your level of satisfaction with what manufacturer / model you went with. Looking for a very noticible sound increase but not obnoxious. A little highway drone wouldn't kill me. I will have any system I end up getting installed by my local Vette guy.

I have the Corsa Sport set up and am pleased with the sound. However, I also have long tube headers and x-pipe w/hi-flow cats...
