Corsa Sucks.
Corsa Sucks. I have a Corsa cat-back on my car and it absolutely sucks. Corsa has shipped me two replacement mufflers over the last 4 years and now the third one is needing replaced because it sounds like a can of f'n marbles. I have had it repaired locally when the alignment bracket broke off, and I swear to God this is the thinnest, cheapest, and most non-expensive stainless used on earth. I am stealing the tips and putting something else on. 
Anyone else realized how overpriced and hyped the Corsa system is?
It doesn't drone, but it is by no means quality.

haha love the thread title 
yeah corsa is overpriced crap. i'm not really a fan of the sound, except on corvettes. and the price is a complete deal breaker. even if it was good quality i still wouldn't pay that much for a cb.

I just pulled my Corsa off today. But I LOVED it for years with Kooks lts and catted Y. NO RASP! if you keep it catted. But, I just put in a mild ESP cam, and now it's just too loud for my taste (I'm 57). It's not raspy...just supper narly! My tuner loves it.
Since my (hopefully) quieter Magnaflow also arrived today, I was able to compare both SS muffers side by side. Magie #12267 is surprisingly smaller than the Corsa. But quality-wise, the welds and stainless steel of the Corsa are flawless.
Just get high flow cats with your Corsa.

I have already got a PM from someone who wants to buy it off me though, I don't get it.
I really like my Corsa and I have had mine for 8 tp 9 years (since 2003-2004) and haven't had a minute of trouble with it and they like all of them are over priced (like most things this day and time LOL) If I was going or needed a new exhaust now I would really consider GMMG, I don't care for the Borla personally (sound or looks) but to each there own, had it on one of my old cars (1996 Camaro Z28).

My car has LTs and no cats and the Corsa doesnt drone, but is really raspy
Sorry, but as for the welds, side by side, the 7 yr old Corsa still looks higher quality than the new Magie. The welds are still shiny, not dark and discolored like the Magie's. The pipes edges are finished, not rough, hack-saw cut like the Magie. And the Corsa pipes are slotted for better fitment. not so the Magie.
But maybe Corsa is under new management these days?
I think I have a buyer for my Corsa, but I haven't heard from him in a few days. I'm asking $200 OBO.

I was warned by others in the forum here to get a catted y with the Corsa when I put on the kooks LTs. Fortunately Maryland Speed took back the ORY that I had ordered and replaced it with Kooks catted y. It has sounded great. Just too agressive now with a cam.

Exactly, the greyish look means the temp was on the high side. Good grades of stainless welded at a lower temp will take on a silver or rainbow color. That doesn't mean that the magnaflow is crap, its just not AS pleasing to look at. Big deal, its under the car. It still seems like a high quality muffler.
