Default Corsa catback on a cammed LT1?

I'm looking for sound clips of Corsa catback on a cammed LT1.

My setup is going to be ported heads/intake with GM 847 and O/R LTs and Y. I've heard many things about Corsa, but would love to hear clips and more comments.

Please clue me in. Thanks!

I do indeed disagree, its a wonderful exhaust, stainless, polished tips and never had an issue. I actually took it off my LT1 car and reused for my now LS1 car.

Here is a dyno of mine.

383
11.25 to comp
hot cam
all bolt ons
LT headers ORY
Corsa

This sucker is LOUD, the vid doesnt do it justice.

Schweet97Z and BlackScreaminMachine I actually have search multiple threads and your two cars are some of the ones I've found with Corsa. Thank you for responding.

Schweet97Z: I have looked into your for sale thread and have been eyeing it for a while. My only setback is price. At this time I'm just trying to decide whether it's worth it or not. In my opinion so far it is, but it's going to put a HUGE hole in my budget, which is already almost spent, for my project. Funny thing I actually have both of your sound clips saved from a few weeks ago because I too am going with the GM 847 cam.

You will love the exhuast! I would love to keep it, but like I said i think it will be holding me back with what I want to do and I dont want to do true duals. I know you will love it.....its well worth the price....and your getting more than an exhuast too....ur getting an electric cutout, both items in top notch condition, with minimal wear. Make it as loud or as quiet from a flip of a switch....PM me if you decide you want it

I like it but its pricey and a big problem is with that price, the mufflers fall apart on the inside and rattle...

Do a search in the LS1 bolton section about this

Yes it may well be expensive, but it is one of the best sounding Y routed exhaust



True dauls are the best, hands down!! I love the way my LS1 screamed with them

Sounds great, dont see to many Corsas on LT1s due to the cost being out of most peoples budget
