CORSA or BORLA?!?! You guys help me out here. I'm torn between Borla and Corsa exhaust. Which one would give me the most bang for my buck and which one sounds cooler in your opinion? Thanks.
Re: CORSA or BORLA?!?! Out of the 2 I dunno which one I would pick, Corsa has a nice sound, but it could be louder. Borla is adjustable to your liking, but Corsa has better tips. Corsa is GM approved (so they cant give you **** about your warranty being voided) and Borlas not. Theyre both expensive as hell, and I dont know what else to tell ya <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

Re: CORSA or BORLA?!?! corsa is WAY too quiet for me but the tips do look sweet. i like my borla just fine, runs it wide open all the time and when the lt's go on i have the option of keepin it quiet if i like.

Corsa on a stock setup is quiet. Corsa with headers is awesome and with a cam even better. My setup is nice inside the car, no drone or excessive noise. Outside it's insane!
Here's a couple videos. I've got more on my website. Needless to say I'm very happy with it.

Re: CORSA or BORLA?!?! If your just getting an exhaust then Corsa may be too quiet. But If your going to get headers in the future it will be the sweetest noise you have heard in your life. Just and exhaust would have to go to GMMG. Plus Corsa has the best tips hands down. <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" />

Re: CORSA or BORLA?!?! i couldnt be happier with my QTP longtubes through the mufflex 3" ory exiting out a wide open borla.
appearance corsa has the upper hand on looks to most however im partial to the boxed design of the borla, and still the fact remains that borla is adjustable if you are into varying the sound of your exhaust with the turn of some bolts versus changing out whole systems.

Re: CORSA or BORLA?!?! i meant to come in here and add that corsa does sound excellent with lt's and no cats but then again so does borla. it also keeps its composure with that setup unlike some other more cheaply priced systems coughLOUDMOUTHcough.

Re: CORSA or BORLA?!?! I vote for Corsa as well. No way you can call it quiet. At WOT it is loud... Biggest Plus is no interior resonance like you get with the Borla. I know, I had both setups. I sold the Borla 3 weeks after I bought it and got the Corsa...

Re: CORSA or BORLA?!?! I was in love with both of those systems until I found the GMMG. Then it was no question. Hands down, i'd go with GMMG all the way. I'm getting one in March.
Besides, there are way too many Borla's out there, quite a few Corsa's also. Not many GMMG's!
GMMG all the way!! <img border="0" alt="[judgement]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" />

Re: CORSA or BORLA?!?! Definitely Corsa...it is a bit quite on a stock car...but is loud enough to get noticed at WOT...once you get LTs...you will have no problem being noticed....I have Hoooker LTs + ORYP + Corsa...and it roars at WOT...
