How To Make Corsa Louder, ORP? I had the SLP LM. Great sound. Corsa had best tips so I put the Corsa on. Looks great but the LM sounded better. What are my options for making it louder at idle and low rpms? I have SLP LT Headers and High Flow Cats. Would off road pipes make it louder with out all the rasp everyone complains about? I know I could do a cutout but I want it this loud all the time.
For me the best exhaust would be a LM with the Corsa tips.

Re: How To Make Corsa Louder, ORP? i have Hooker LT's, ORY pipe and the Corsa cat-back. It is LOUD. My friend has the Borla with FLP's and his is just a hair bit louder. The only rasp is at partial throttle from 2100- 2800 rpm. Nothing bad. When your gouge the throttle though this bitch screams- you'll love it.

Re: How To Make Corsa Louder, ORP? Ya u just cut it open and start ripping the packing out.. might need some cutting to.. but to tell the truth its better off to just get a metal shop to make a replacment.. a hollow muffler.. get them to build the same size,design and inlet outlet as your muffler.. On my X IROC i baught it with a gutted muffler.. had no idea it was gutted till i fell off <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> but dam it sounded good.. no one knew what kinda exhuast it was.. and neither did i! haha.. i'd like to here what the LS1 would sound like weith a hollow muffler..hmm

Re: How To Make Corsa Louder, ORP? Are you saying it's not loud enough while your in the car???
All Corsa's are quiet from inside the cabin, it's designed this way, but stand outside and let a friend drive it, you won't think it's to quiet then <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Add LT headers and it's a whole new sound <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Re: How To Make Corsa Louder, ORP? Yes, I am saying it does not sound loud in the car or outside the car at idle. Good suggestion, I'll get someone to drive my car while I stand outside - and hopefully they will bring it back! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" />

Re: How To Make Corsa Louder, ORP? Thanks for all the input. I've decided that without racing all the time that ORP are not the best option and that I should do my part for emissions. So, I ordered a cutout. That will give me the sound when I want it, I won't violate emissions, and I get the benefit of the Corsa in the cab.
