Default need help deciding

well the opportunity came up for me to get some tips (nice ones,maybe corsa) or an e-cutout. what do you guys think I should do? Im torn between the two because the previous owner kept the stock tips when he put the cat back on, and I dont care for how they look, but I have stock exhaust manifold and y pipe, so I'm not sure how much good a cutout would do. Any opinions?

Do the e-cutout thats something you can never get tired of... If you don't want the loud sound close it.

As for the exhaust look around and listen to a few cars you think sound good and ask them what they have.. Last thing you want to do is just rush and get something and it sound like **** because you did listen to a F-body with it on.

Just my .02

If you don't mind me asking what kind of deals he giving you on the corsa?

well its not the whole catback, it'd just be the tips. I already have a magnaflow catback, the previous owner just wanted to keep the stock look so he had them weld the stock tips back on
