Corsa Exhaust Video

MACHO · Aug 13, 2012

Hey guys, this is my first new thread. I've seen many posts regarding what exhausts to purchase. I decided to drop some coin on a CORSA TOURING. I put together a video to compare the before and after on my 2011 5.3L Tahoe. Hope this helps for those considering a Corsa Cat back. I'm really happy with it. Part of me wishes I got the SPORT, however being that's it's the family rig, however I think it's the PERFECT balance, being as there is NO DRONE and it still has a nice throaty exhaust note when you want to put your foot into it. Friends that ride in it immediately comment on how nice the exhaust sounds. Hope you enjoy!

That's what I'm wanting to run too. Where'd you order it from and how much coin did it set you back?

Phattyford, I ordered from USpartsOutlet on eBay. With free shipping it was right under $900.

I love the setup. A part of me wishes I had gone sport bc it wasn't a major difference from stock, but for the family grocery getter it really is perfect. Driving around under light throttle, is the perfect amount of growl IMO. There is NO drone and you know it's a performance exhaust. When I have the chance to light it up and when it's under load, it sounds AWESOME! I definitely turn heads on the street next to me.

I also have the Corsa Touring on my 2011 Tahoe. Just the right amount of sound for me. Just a little growl when under load going through the gears in around town driving and more bark when you get on it. Almost silent on the highway so it doesn't get bothersome on a trip and no drone like I had when I did just the resonator delete.

I have noticed that it is a little louder after a cold start until the engine and exhaust warm up. It also gradually got SLIGHTLY louder as I put several thousand miles on it.

When I bought mine the best price I found was streetsideauto.com

BTW for those that might be interested in the Corsa, this is a good video that explains the construction of the Corsa muffler and differences from other exhaust. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c821NpSP6-8&feature=related

sounds awesome

I have a 6.2 in my escalade and have been tossing between the two. I think the touring might not sound much different at all, since the 6.2 growls pretty well on its own, but fear the sport may be too loud. Anyone with a sound clip of the touring on a 6.2? The main reason I want to change is I don't like the factory exhaust outlet

Yes I've noticed the same. Definitely smooths out as it warms up. Nice and loud upon cold start as w many exhausts. Ive also noticed it's gotten barely, slightly more loud with use, like it has been broken-in; which is strange bc it doesn't have packing material like Borlas or other exhausts right?? Maybe I'm just imagining it?
