Default Corsa Vs Magnaflow

Need help deciding on which catback to choose, would like some opinions from you guys, price is obviously a big difference with corsa costing almost double but the corsa sounds damn good on a 6.0. anyone have any problems out of one of the other? How about annoying drone or anything else like that...

I like Magnaflow. And if you plan on going with catless longtubes in the future, Corsa's, I have read many times, become very loud and raspy.

If I add anything else to the exhaust it will be a set of shorty headers and leave the exhaust be, main upgrade will probaly be a magna charger

Tough call, have had both and loved both. But after getting my Corsa on this truck I would have a tough time going back. I plan on always having cats on all future vehicles, so that isn't an issue for me. When I chose Magnaflow for my '06 GTO I did it because of sound clips with headers, cams, etc where it was still VERY deep with no rasp. Can't go wrong with either IMO.

I plan on keeping my cats as well, I have 2 dynomax ultra flows sitting around they are 3" in and out but I would need to increase all my pipe sizing for them. I think I will sell them

My truck came with a Corsa, and it sounded pretty good from the factory. I bought LT headers, and off road Y that didn't have cats. It was way too loud for my taste. I built my current exhaust with a dual 3 in/out Magnaflow, and it sounds great. I just recently punched the cats out, and it got a little louder, but nothing obnoxious. Maybe the cats were the reason the Corsa was so loud, I had actually thought it was the headers. I am happy now, but have always wondered what it would sound like with a Borla.
