Default Video: The famous Exhaust Saga (Corsa)

So, after reading numerous threads on the infamous exhaust topic, I finally went for Corsa Sport installed by the good folks at Corvettes of Houston. Because I was always annoyed that there is not a good comparo using the same camera of before/after, I took it upon myself to take some videos. Thus, for your viewing pleasure please go to the youtube link below. There are two comparisons, one in my garage and the other cruising at 2,000 RPM followed by a minor acceleration.

Summary thoughts are that the Corsa Sport is a little louder than I was expecting, but it sounds REALLY good. Also, there is basically zero drone and the interior noise is almost the same for highway cruising. Welcome all feedback, and sorry for the image quality in the video. My camera is getting old!

I actually did something very similar comparing stock, to borla touring, to Rt66.

Been a couple years but I still have the vid.

Click here to see it.

Nice...mine came with the Corsa Sports (previous owner had them installed) I didn't have a point of comparison...after watching your video, I can sure see that the Corsa's sound much better than stock. I still smile everytime I wrap the engine out a bit on this one underpass road I drive. Nothing beats a V-8 with a good muffler! Thanks for sharing.
