Default Corsa Sport

I just installed it today and what a difference!!! from the Flowmaster. I took it for a test drive and no DRONING!!!!!

It was an easy install, I put the car on Jacks.

I know that the wife will be happy, because I sure am!!!

Thanks to all that responded to my earlier post about my Exhaust Dillema.

Great, happy you like them. I love mine.

I was thinking I made a mistake not going with the Flowmasters but didn't know about drone issues with them.

Good deal....IMO Corsa is the only way to go!

It's downright difficult to get drone from a Corsa exhaust. I severely lugged my car once in 6th gear trying to produce drone. It did but it took extraordinary effort to create the harmonic threshold necessary. It wouldn't happen under any 'normal' circumstance.

Corsa is the way to go if drone is a concern, glad you are happy.

I rode in a C-6 with the Corsa Extreme and it sounded great. I've not yet ridden in one with the Sports.

what made you decide to go with the sports and not the extremes>

Are the sports even louder than the stock exhaust? just curious

I went from Flowmasters to Corsa Sports too, I don't regret it at all. I love them.

Sports and Extremes are similiar except the extreme is a bit louder and deeper.

Comparing the stock exhaust to a corsa sport would be like comparing the sound of a new born kitten to an adult lion. Little to no sound at all, to something that erupts and sounds like its literally roaring.

Corsa makes a great product. Installed Sports with the Corsa X-pipe on my '05 years ago & they sounded great. Couple of years later installed AR headers with the AR high-flow cats/X-pipe and the Sport mufflers....exhaust sound is even better!

Louder than stock would definitely be an understatement... especially if you have long tubes. I had my ARH's installed a few months before I got my sports. My wife was in the garage the first time I fired it up after the Corsa install and it scared the **** out of her!

They're loud...
