Thumbs up Got my corsa installed

I got my Corsa Sport exhaust on finally. It is awesome . My dad has the touring setup on his SS, which sounds great also, but not near as mean as mine. It has zero drone inside and almost zero sound inside under normal driving. But when you get on it, man. It finally has some bark now to go along with the bite . I had my g/f fly by me in it tonight and it reminds me of the loudmouth on my camaro but with out all the draw backs. I will post pics after i get it cleaned up.

It does sound mean as hell, huh?

Did you go with a regular side exit?

Do you find that yous sounds like a farm tractor or dump truck when you lug the motor when locked up in overdrive? (around or under 40mph, with the tach around 1,110-1,200). I have a lot of hills around here, and my Avalanche did it a lot. I could hear the "glug glug glug" echoing off of sourrounding landscape if I had the windows down.

I was a little bummed out that I couldn't take 'full advantage' of the system with my automatic. If the tranny is shifted manually, you can REALLY hear how quiet the system is under 'normal' driving conditions. The A4's throw it off a bit, because they require some extra throttle due to the short shifting the tranny does.

Yeah i went with the side exit. I know what sound your talking about. I have heard my dads SS do it couple times, but there isnt a hill in sight here and i usually dont give it a chance to lug when i am driving. Did you have the touring or the sport system? Did you have Headers?

That's cool... The noise wouldn't stop me from buying another one - I just like to try new things and Corsa didn't have a dual/rear exit setup when I was looking for this trucks exhaust. The Corsa would sound SICK with a cam in it.

I had the original one - I think it's what the call the sport system? (the louder one). It's like straight-pipe loud at WOT. I was running manifolds in that truck..
