Get the Hooker. You will love the sound & it can grow with your mod level without sounding like crap. Not to mention its WAY cheaper than corsa. I wouldn't worry about it not being stainless unless you live on the coast or somewhere you might see lots of salty water or salt/sand on the roads. If the Hooker muffler eventually ever does get all rusty, just get another for $80. I would only get a shiny stainless muffler if my car was gonna be for more show with mirror under it. I live out in the country & my Hooker still has NO rust on it yet. You can always do what I did & get a set of tip seperate.

Corsa is more expensive but......it looks 100% better and sounds better IMO. The Corsa has a better tone at idle for sure and at WOT it really brings out the V8 sound. Ive had it on two different fbodys and love it. I know a couple people who run Hooker and it sounds like what you pay for to me.

for me it came down to... corsa with pro tips.. around 800$ or.. tsp special- pacesetters coated, tsp off road y $500 for both, then the hooker for 300$, total of $800... but man am i jealous of those corsa tips.. are the corsa pipes from the muffler to the tips 3"?

I've had both on my car ... for stock internals and w/ cats the corsa is amazing ... and its hard to beat the look of those tips!
Now i've got the hooker, and really for the price of it, you can't beat it ... its got a real nice tone, no resonance or drone at all. No rasp either. Tips aren't the best looking, but they don't look IMO.

I absolutely love the sound of my Corsa and the tips would look good on a pile of horse droppings. It's got no interior drone or rasp and screams at wide open throttle. I strongly recommend the corsa if you don't mind the extra $$$.

They both sound good! Corsa getting the edge. Hooker is just too quiet. Nice rumble but too quiet. If LT, CAM and ORY are in your future than Hooker would be worth getting! Just my 2 cents! Good Luck!
