Default Which exhaust is this?

Does someone know what kind of exhaust setup I have? It does say Corsa on the tips, but I do not see a kit on their website that looks like this. Also is that X pipe aftermarket as well? I think the 2008 came with an H pipe, right? Thanks

I see that I am wrong. It looks like everything is stock besides the pipe after the X. So the only question is the catback exhaust. I like how there is no drone, but the car is still a bit quiet for my taste. Eventually headers or LS7 manifolds may make it on the car. Any opinions on the LS7 manifolds...ie is that swap worth it? Daily driver here.

Indeed, those are Corsa Sports...they are available with either Quad or Dual tips, which is what you have. The Sports are the middle of the Corsa line for loudness....the Touring are the most quiet & the Extremes are the loudest. If you're looking for something less quiet, you could look for a used NPP system in the For Sale sections. With the NPP, you can run "quiet" or "loud" depending upon what you want at the moment.
Not sure what you mean by 'LS7 Manifolds'. If you mean exhaust headers, then most here will recommend American Racing Headers (ARH), Kooks or Billy Boat, etc. Any of those will give you a louder exhaust note thru your current set up & if you do go with after-market headers, then you might as well do that manufacturer's X-Pipe with high flow cats. You'll need a tune after that mod, but should easily pick up 25-40 hp.

Thanks all. Glad to know what kind of exhaust is on it. Yeah I saw some people were taking the exhaust manifolds off the Z06 and using those. Assuming you would have to use everything though from the Z06 piping (at least cats and x-pipe). May not be worth the cost and work.
