Default Corsa long tubes

Hello guys, So I've been looking at headers for about a week I've decided to go with Ckrsa long tube headers..
but what is the best website to buy them from... I figured Corsa I was going to buy from Texas but their number does not work any recomendations?
Also LTH cat delete no modifications needed rightM says paired with the corsa axle back i can expect 41 HP, and i have that axle back but ive noticed a lot of headers require their own x pipe i have factory any issues ill run into? Thanks

No matter who you go with you'll need an x pipe. I would suggest american racing or kooks for the long tube headers. I've never seen anyone run corsa headers. Their catback sounds great but you may want to go elsewhere for the headers. If you do a search there is a reason why people runs ARH or kooks.

thanks for the reply dude, why do people hate Corsa headers? So I'm forced to get an x pipe? Damn that suck, so if I do get a x pip/LTH will the xpipe fit to my corsa axle back? I want to keep it, thanks.

There's nothing special about the corsa axle back system. Its the same connection as the oe or other systems. The long tubes with their xpipe will work with them. The long tubes should come with the xpipe. At least the ARH or kooks do.

So the Corsa long tube headers bolt right up to the standard Corsa double-x pipe they sold for a good while there? I thought that the Corsa double-x pipe wouldn't work with any headers besides the stock manifolds.

I first purchased the X pipe, then later purchased the LTH and axel back.
LMPerforamce.com. I have used them for all my parts. Be sure and check for discounts before you hit the buy button.

Hey,

Text us at 213 394 2886 or email us at info@merakiautoworks.com

We can get you taken care of with ARH, Kooks or Corsa. If you want to do Corsa we can get you setup with the right setup. Just need their x pipe and we have that in stock as well.

-Josh

The Corsa headers will bolt up to the factory mid pipe or the Corsa X pipe. Both are dimensionally the same. Plenty of bad information out there, but this is the truth.

Yes it’s fact. Consider this - the Corsa double helix X pipe was made to bolt up to your factory system (manifolds in the front and axle-backs in the rear.) The headers were then built to mate up to the Corsa X pipe. It’s all dimensionally the same. I called them when I was shopping and they confirmed for me that they will fit with the stock mid pipe. Make your order with confidence.

So I found this description online of one of their headers:

Corsa 1-7/8 Inch Long Tube Headers - C7 Corvette Stingray. Complete the Corsa Exhaust System on your C7 Corvette Stingray with a set of Off Road Headers. Manufactured with High Grade Stainless Steel, these Headers feature 1-7/8 Primaries and a Full 3" Race Style Merge Collectors. Designed and engineered to mate directly to Corsa's world famous Double Helixx X-Pipe (PN-14761) When it comes to Corvette Exhaust Systems, Corsa Quality is hard to beat. 16004

But the note right under it says:

Product Note: Designed to mate to Corsa X-Pipe only. Will not work with OEM or other Aftermarket X-Pipes

Which is super confusing. Since the Corsa X-Pipe was designed to work with the stock manifolds. Oh well, I guess a phone call to double check is warranted. But, if this is true, it looks like I'm getting their headers.
