great sound with stock manifolds, but once you get past that onto LTs, and a new Y, catted or OR, it gets a little raspy for my tastes. to each his own though, & being all stock, probably one of the two best cat backs for a stock car.

Awesome build quality and good sound. I run LTs, but have high flow cats, which eliminate the rasp.

Love my Corsa, Used it on a LT1 and xfer'ed it to the LS1. I run high flow cats which keeps the noise down with the Cam.

If you can find a reputable exhaust shop I would go for a custom system. You can have them build it anyway with you want, with whatever materials you want and it's built for your car so you know it will fit.

I always liked the looks of them and my buddies car sounded amazing with them. However it's wayyyy overpriced. What I always wanted to know is how the magnaflow sounds compared to the corsa, in terms of loudness.

I thought mine sounded like A$$ and cost way to much. Quality sucked, tips were the only thing worth having.

I agree on the overpriced part, big time. What about the quality sucked?
