Default Pacesetter/Corsa Nasty!!

Well im dissapointed.....i love the sound of corsa. I also love the sound of no cats, BUT I hate the sound of of corsa with no cats! Its not that its too loud, it just sounds like a damn harley from 3k rpms and up. Anyways gonna get some spun cats welded in tomorrow. Hope it works. This muffler sounded awsome before the ory was put on.

its the sport system off the CTS-V. Sounded bad *** before the headers and ORY. Hoping the cats will give me back that sound.

I ran LT's ORY and Corsa on my SS with the H/C. Very loud, raw and raspy sounding. I added a Catted Y pipe with Magnaflow HF cats and it really cleaned up the raw, raspy sound without losing much volume. Eventually a baffle broke inside the muffler and I replaced it with a Hooker Aerochamber.

Bump for the sound clip. I want to know how this sounds as I have the corsa sport and want to get the lpp headers and off rod pipe. I guess i'll have to get some cats.
