Default CorvettePartsBob: Muffler question...

Last year, I ordered a Corsa sport system from you for my 2005 manual tranny Vette. I am about to get a 2006 A6 (being delivered this week). I have heard that Corsa does not (yet) have a system for A6 cars. Is the GM Performance system as good or better than the Corsa? What have you heard?

Corsa is going to release their C6 A6 Touring System this coming week.

Some days I definitely wish I was retired, then maybe I would have 5 minutes of spare time!

As the other post says Corsa is coming out with an A6 system, but have not received any specs or prices from them yet. I have talked to them about every two weeks and the system seems to be delayed for some reason every time. They have promised to call me the instant their engineering dept. releases it for production. They are also working on a new 3" dia pipe system for the C6 as well. Preliminary price estimates from Corsa is about 10-15% increase above the Touring System.

We do have the GM Performance system by Borla in stock. It is very similar to the Corsa Touring system in sound. Ken had put this on his C6 and seemed to like it, I know his wife really liked it as there was no drone inside at highway speeds. We have them on special for 1199.95 .

If anyone has any questions or want to put an order in call me at 800-234-5284 or email me at parts@fichtnerchevrolet.com

Default Corsa for A6

Talked to Corsa today and was told they would ship on 12 May and the cost from Corsa would be $1670.99 and the part number is 14167. They are sending me a diagram of the new system. I hope they are less expensive from other vendors
