No offense to anyone that has corsa, but why does everyone want it? Does it offer more power w/mods or sound better? I always thought corsa was like a pricey full GM exhaust system that came w/a factory warranty.

I have the Touring side exit. A straight through design so flow is no question. Silent in the cab. You know it is there but it is not annoying AT ALL. The side exit touring has a hyper throaty sound under the throttle. I heard a sport dual rear exit and hated it, a raspy poppy noise. The side exit sport is a little louder than the torring but both only sound off under the gun.
Heavy duty construction, exellent fit and finish with smooth bends.
Some dealerships dress up new showroom trucks with 20" wheels and Corsas.

It does give you more power as I felt the difference after installing it.
I have the Sport exhaust system and love it.

At my local dealership, the parts department is stupid.
I just went to the accessory department located in the dealership and had them price match gmparts direct.
The reason I didn't purchase from them was because they called Corsa and supposedly told them that the SS exhaust system wouldn't work on my VHO.
They were or someone was so so wrong too.
I later purchased it from MTI. It fit perfect and looks perfect!

My local dealerships wont price match gmpartsdirect at all!!! It would be nice if they did though. As far as why does everyone want one, TheRock and Chevy6000VHO pretty much have summed it up. They sound awesome, you can feel a difference in power after you install it, and its almost 100% quiet at hwy speeds yet LOUD when you get on it..... not to mention unbelieveable quality and fitment to boot. What more could you ask for?

Hopefully I will be trading in my true dual exhaust system soon for a corsa sport if I can find a good deal on one. They sound awesome with lt's and no cats.

I had heard Illnali's Corsa sport once before on his old truck but can't remember. It is pretty loud at idle or not. I know it bark when you start it up but does it quiet down when it idles down? I am looking at maybe redoing my dual system with a corsa sport.
