Default Yup, I'm one too!

I too am new to this site, so here's my "bio"!

2000 WS6 (Black)
B&M Ripper
Corsa Cat-Back (not real fond of it)

Not much in the upgrade dept, but I just bought it and have two other vehicles (GM) taking too much money!
In all honesty probably won't do much more to it for awhile...Always happy with faster but for now it'll work!

I'm just north of Cincinnati OH, work 2 jobs non-stop by choice (I love my jobs). I like long walks in the park and quite nights by the fireplace . Just kiddin obviously!

Dennis

Welcome to the site

I always liked the Corsa but do not have it. Why don't you like yours?

The Corsa isn't a "bad" product. Just think I'd be happier with something else. The overall fit isn't as good as the Magnaflow I put on my Tahoe. Like after market dual exhaust on trucks, the passenger side tips hang lower than the driver side (came up with my own fix), and the sound isn't quite as throaty as I thought it would be.<---the sound is my own fault. I didn't want something that would wake my neighbors! For being so expensive guess I just expected a little bit more (again, it's not a bad product though).

Welcome! Do you get to spend much time by the fireplace with two jobs?

Nope, not much time by the fireplace! Half the time I'm away from my house so much I can't remember if it even has one!
