I'm cool with the sides uncorked and I'm old school as far as the noise. I'll check out the PN you gave earlier & then make a decision. Thanks!

Did you leave the side pipes open along with the Corsas or put the restrictor plates back in?cloud9 said:IMO if you're good with the side pipes completely uncorked, you'd be happy with the Corsas in terms of volume.stumpy said:Cloud9,
Thanks for the reply and input. My Boss is almost entirely street driven, with an occasional trip to Road Atlanta or to the drag strip on Friday nights. In your opinion, would the Corsas be too loud for everyday use (if that is possible!).
I left the side pipes open to get the least restriction possible with the factory emissions systems intact. I don't think that much exhaust flows through there though now that the back pressure is minimized from the Corsas. Someone weighed the side pipes at 5.5 lbs each so I also don't see much benefit in removing them and installing the GT mid-pipe. Just let it breathe ;D1BadBoss said:Did you leave the side pipes open along with the Corsas or put the restrictor plates back in?
Nobody thinking about borla ? I wonder why. No drone from them sounds like a good thing to me. I'm thinking about the borla s type myself. Anybody have any experience with them.stumpy said:Hey Arizona,
Have you used the Roush axle backs before or heard them? How did you make your decision to go with them versus Magnaflow, Corsa, etc. Just curious.
I don't want to spend big bucks & then find out I messed up on choosing the wrong system. Trying to do my homework as best I can before pulling the trigger.
You can go to Borla's site and hear the difference between their models. I've personally heard the Borla's on a Jeep Hemi. Best I've heard next to the Roush on a 427R. The Roush got my attention from about 20 yards as he backed out of a parking spot.stumpy said:Hey Arizona,

I plan to do some internet searching before I decide. I like that deep, old school rumble. Should sound good after we get the Tracpack software (if that ever comes).
I had Magnaflow on my Raptor & I really wasn't too pleased with the sound of it. It was loud enough, but not deep enough in tone for me.
How would you test the flow thru the side pipes?cloud9 said:I left the side pipes open to get the least restriction possible with the factory emissions systems intact.
