Default Corsa Exaust

I want to put a Corsa exhaust on on my 2011 C6. I want it loud enough to hear but not so loud you can't hear anything else. I know there's a Extreme, a Sport and a Touring. Looking for advise on which to use. Is there a web site where you can hear them. Thanks in advance for your help.

I've had the 'touring' system on my '05' for over 10 years now. I like it a lot. It does exactly what you're asking for. It'll bark if you get on it but otherwise just let's you know that a nice V8 is under the hood. I can also remove my front mufflers, put on my original H-pipe and it's a Sport System, but I think they may have changed some after that. Not sure the Touring System is even available anymore. Hope this helps.

The Corsa Sports work & sounds great....especially with headers, hi-flow cats & an X-pipe!

I have the corsa sport and mid pipe with stock manifold. It is without doubt the sexiest sound ever created by vehicle

I installed Corsa exhaust and headers on my '06, 12 years ago; I never regretted it, They sound good but not annoying.

Your car will dictate the exhaust...I don't think you can do Extremes on a non LS7 or LS9 car.

My 427 has WCCH heads, headers, cam, tune, airbox, and the Corsa Extreme...love it!!! It's loud behind the car, and really loud over 4K RPM's.

My system consists of Kooks headers, Kooks X pipe w/ cats & a Corsa Sport axle back, I love the sound of the car, not obnoxiously loud, but you know its there & no drone at any speed

You'll be fine with the extremes. I had those and like the set up. If your going to do headers then you may want to go with the Sports. But I didn't have headers on my car and like the sound of the extremes.

Thanks everyone. Guess I'll have to go listen to some of my friends.

I went through many exhausts on 2 different C6's. BB Bullets, Borla Stinger, Corsa Sports, Corsa Extremes, and NPP GM Perf exhaust (came with my newer C6). My cars were bone stock, just had to swap out the boring Chevy exhaust. I settled in on the Corsa Extremes. BTW they are not extreme, they are perfect. The Bullets drone like hell. Can't go wrong with Corsa or Borla. I would trade my Extremes for the new Borla ATAK, love the deeper sound of Borla.

The Sports is the ticket. The Touring isn't much and the Extreme's will **** off the neighbors.

I thought Corsa dropped Touring. I've had Sport and loved it but my car constantly changes so I ended up with Xtreme and am satisfied. Xtreme is not for everyone. But let's be clear...Exhaust sounds change with engine modifications so listening to people making blanket statements is not always a good thing.

Ya with headers it is extreme.

Otherwise cans only and it will still **** off the neighbor at 5am.

For me it is a bit to hot rod sounding..

I installed the Corsa Sport exhaust on my '05 and installed their x pipe as well. Sounds great at idle and when you put your foot down. There is zero drone on the interstate, which is nice!! Sounds awesome around town. I have the M6, which I believe makes it sound much better, IMHO.

You have that backwards. You can ONLY get Extremes on a non-LS7 or LS9 car. They don't make Extremes for the Z cars.
