Corsa fan here. Plenty of pictures and video/sound clips on my website. Headers plus Corsa equalled a 45 HP gain on the dyno. The dyno sheets are up there as well.

I have B&B on both of my LS1's and love it <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> . Great sound but not obnoxious. It sounds really good on my 2000 Z28 because of the FLP headers.

I put the Corsa system on my convertible last night. Installation was extremely easy, and the sound is what I wanted. Dignified, but agressive. Pricey, but woth it, in my opinion.

I've had Borla and B&B, recomendation = Borla. IMO the B&B is just too quiet and the tone isn't as low.

I've been happy with my B&B/TTS setup so far. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Anyone know where you can get just the B&B QUAD TIPS alone?

I have had both Corsa and Borla on my T/A. I like the looks and fit of the Corsa better. The Corsa tips are also easier to clean. The newer Borla tips are chromed inside and out and say BORLA on the top of them. I had the old style so I assume the new tips are easier to clean but would still require the use an old toothbrush to clean them good. The Corsa tip stay exactly where you put them. It took me over a month to get the Borla tips to stay exactly where I wanted them. I have heard that in order to install the B&B system on a T/A you have to cut the rear fascia some. There is no way I would chop on my car for exhaust tips when there are others out there to look just as good or better.

I'd have to say Corsa, but the sound of their exhaust is not the greatest! I'd try out some of the sound wav. files first to see which one you like first. Sound adds a big meaning for the car, for me at least. Remember, if you are getting headers too, that is going to change the sound of the car also. Thus, maybe the Corsa exhaust will sound better with headers, rather than some of the other exhausts. Also, you can have a different exhaust and tips, but I'm sure you already know that-common sense thing.
Good luck

B&B with headers and orp sounds really good, plus i think the tips are the best looking ones out right now, i do like the corsa tips too but B&B are better
