Interior sound from Corsa Xtreme exhaust
We've ordered a 2018 LBR Stingray and plan to keep it original except for an aftermarket exhaust and think I have settled on Corsa. But can't decide between Sport and Xtreme. I'm thinking the latter because in the videos it sounds wicked. However, can anyone tell me what the Xtreme sounds like inside the car in cruise on Tour mode?
When I am by myself I'll likely be in Sport, but when we are together we'll probably be in Tour mode and I don't really want the noise level that we have in our 30-series Flowmaster-equipped '79.

I have the Corsa Extreme and LOVE IT. I rarely use the radio anymore, and I'm a radio disc jockey here in Kansas City.

Yes! It is a Z51, so it came with the NPP. Just know that the Corsa Extreme eliminates your NPP capability. I never turned off the NPP anyway. I left it wide open all the time.
Trust me-you'll thank me if you decide on the Extreme. Even my wife was commenting tonight on how good it sounds, even inside the car!

However, I want to be sure that when we are cruising on the highway together that the exhaust note is not too obtrusive and that we'd still be able to carry on a normal conversation if we go with the Xtreme.Chappie

I have the Corsa extreme, along with headers and x-pipe. When cruising at normal street or even highway speeds, there is virtually no drone. The car can be very quiet when its not under load, it's actually quite surprising. When you open it up and go full throttle it sounds like the gates of hell have opened up and the entire car roars and shakes, it is extremely intense. For me personally I think it's too loud for my taste, but I do get a lot of compliments, so overall I think you will like it. When coming home late at night through my HOA-restricted strict community, I have no problem making it to my house without making much noise.
