One on left is a bolt on x pipe that removes the pup cats , the one on the right is useless .... you are supposed to cut your cats off and weld them to this pipe.. its pointless

You wont find the Corsa or the Borla new anywhere and if you find one used ( rare unicorn) you will pay dearly

Best bet , get an ebay knock off

extreme online store has the same bolt in for 250. Beautiful stainless steel double helix if you're looking for cost saving. That's what I went with.

Why Pay double for a midpipe that makes nearest no difference in power?

Huge difference in sound tone. Much deeper. Much higher volume under throttle and on cold starts. Sounds much more like an LS motor.

No noticable change in sound at normal idle with warmed up engine.

A good muffler shop can make a knock-off of whatever you want. Take the pix and your car.
