GHLs by far give the LS1 the deepest tone ive heard. Dont care much for SLP, but between those two B&B is really nice. I heard the PRT system this past weekend and liked it, altho still a little too whiney for my tastes.

Corsa sound pretty good. Mellow idle until you stomp on it, and it gets rumbling loud.

The B&B Bullets are loud as hell!. What are you looking for in an aftermarket cat-back?

Corsa doesnt get rumbly loud @ all. Ive never once heard a Corsa system that rumbled, even w/ offroads. Its too high pitched. GHL is the only system ive heard first hand that actually makes the LS1 rumble

Ive heard Corsa first hand and even w/ headers its just too whiney to me. I know its all subjective but its just my opinion. I do prefer Corsa over Poorla tho, even stingers (never been a fan of Poorla if you cant tell). GHL to me is the deepest sounding C5 setup ive heard. I wish i could find a soundbite of it off a guys Z but Ive lost the link.

But here are GHL catbacks for C5

I prefer
Corsa over Borla anyday.Haven't personally driven an SLP or B+B car yet.If you do headers with no Cats it will make the exhaust sound alot different than the stock exhaust manifolds.The Borla's give horrible resonance inside the car with headers.
