Default I need help identifying my exhaust..

Okay i got flowmasters on my 2001 t/a and i cant figure out what model flowmasters they are... Apparently there are different kinds... They are nice deep sounding, but not loud unless im really getting on it...

Another thing, I was curious what you guys have to say with the Corsa Cat-back exhaust... I haven't heard it on a ws6 in person but was curious of how well it sounded... I hate listening to the sound clips online because they all aren't very clear... Is the corsa much louder than the flowmaster?

Corsa system also comes with the dual tips

all the more reason to make the switch..

I am unsure of how to tell what kind of flowmaster series you have, but IMHO I think Corsa exhaust sounds and looks the best on any LS1 Firebird. I've heard several different cam variations and headers through corsa on firebirds at track rentals and such.

I was skeptical about the Corsa at first, mainly because of the cost, but trust me, it was the best money I spent on my car, with maybe the exception of Strano springs/swaybars. The sound is very unique and its not too loud at cruise RPMs.

just keep an eye out on the for sale section....I picked mine up for $600 with an electric cutout, under 5K miles on it.

^^ +100000 I have found many deals on parts here and saved a ton of money. There are also for sale sections for different areas so you can find parts that are sometimes close enough to you to drive and pick up. Saves $ on shipping costs.
