Borla or Corsa? Hello,
I own a Trans Am WS.6, just got it a couple of months ago.Can someone can help me and corsas onwith pictures of borlas a trans am. Which one of these would be better(in performance)? I've heard that Borla was one of the most free flowing EXHAUST for LS1. Is this true?
Can someone help me with getting pictures or giving me information and/or problems with any of the two?
Because right now, i am pretty sure i want to get Borla. I still would like some info on Corsa though. Thanks.

Get a Loudmouth if you want preformance, its by far the best flowing catback for the ls1. But it can be very raspy and un-refined. I love mine, but b/t borla and corsa, I would defiantly got with corsa.

corsa is a bit quiet for my tastes but it sounds great with headers. i like my borla just fine, its a bit cheaper than corsa and it makes noise without sounding like **** like a loudmouth.

You really can't go wrong with either. As mentioned above, corsa is a tad bit quiet, but only at low rpms, once the rpms build up the corsa starts to really scream.
Corsa with headers is just plain old sweet

Thanks to all of you. Yes, SLP "Loudmouth" is very raspy at high RPMs.
Does Borla sound like a "Monster" from low RPMs to high RPMs?
Becuase what i'm going for is BIG LOUD SOUND with no raspy tone and pretty good performance.
ALSO, Which one of these two have a better " idle " sound?

For performance, your not going to notice a differance in most of the catbacks available.
BTW my friend had a borla system, when I got my Corsa system he said he liked my system better and said it sounded meaner. The Corsa looks a lot prettier than the Borla too.
Does the borla sound like a monster, no....Unless you get headers on it.
Again this is just my opinion and expierence since my buddy *had* borla and I have corsa. He sold his borla system

I have 2 friends with the same cam, onlything is one has the cam on a 113 LSA with borla, and the other has the cam on a 112 LSA with corsa. Theyre pretty close, but FWIW the car with the borla and the 113LSA lopes a lot harder than the corsa. The only situation where ive seen corsa impress me was on a car with a stroker motor, and I dont think you wana get one of thoes right away.
