This is Borla sold in GM accessories site

in Dubai the dealer only fixes GM aproved part, even supercharge kits.

Correct. Borla. You said Corsa. Completely different and not approved. You also said aftermarket air filter which is also not approved.

yes for our dealer is CORSA, I don't know why
I even showed them the BORLA in USA site.
as for them it's for US and for Dubai is CORSA.

usally I don't install the CAT-BACK and CAI with the dealer, all my cars I did install outside.
and I am speaking of cars that I have now like ZL1 Camaro and ATS-V Cadillac.
when I take them to the dealer for warrenty repare, not once the issue of aftermarket parts reased.

as per my experince with GM (15+ years) what ever you install before the MAF and the O2 sensor, it will not concedered as major modification.

this is my experince only, and you may be right.

Ever park at the Dubai Mall on Fashion Ave? Saw a red C8 parked there as well as a yellow. Can't find a pic I took of the red one though
