Borla or Corsa Didn't have to pay taxes after all this year like expected so i want to change the exhaust. I have Magnaflow and just want something else since i'm in better standing than i have been the last couple years.
Can't make up the mind between the Borla or Corsa. I love both systems but haven't been able to figure which side of the fence to jump to. Like the sound of the Borla but cleaning the tips looks like a beotch. Love the sound of the Corsa, can't think of any bad but can't commit to it.
Guys that have one, the other or had both just give me your personal pros and cons on both. Even if you don't have either throw your thoughts out. Thanks.

I have Corsa and I really have absolutely no problem with it. It sounds great all the time!! One of the biggest perks is the fact that it doesn't emit a nasty drone inside the cockpit, but if you set up your exhaust right you can get that humbling rumble inside the cabin if you really want it(I personally love the sound of LS motors in my ears). I chose Corsa years ago when it seemed like every person with an F-body had a Borla cat-back. I wanted to be different at the time and I'm glad I made the decision because I love the higher-pitched sound that it produces. I like the way Borla sounds, but at times it can get quite obnoxious and "disgusting" sounding. IMO Corsa gives a racier sound and it really cleans up the rear-end appearance of an F-body, especially Camaros. Make sure you go with the premium tips though if you decide to go with Corsa because they are more visible on Camaros and the regular tips can sometimes leave a little to be desired. Both are good systems and if you can't find a con for Corsa, I would highly recommend it!(BTW it is an easy DIY install)

I heard corsa sounds stock at WOT but i dont think so, borla has a adjustable plate for performance and sound i would go with borla and just put some corsa tips on it.

Borla sounds very like BB's in a coffee can with full exhaust, but I'd take that over a broken Corsa baffle anyday. Everybody I have ever known with Corsa has had the baffle in the muffler break and goes to ****.
