Corsa Performance exhaust?

Recommended Posts

I’ve been looking at the available exhaust systems for this car and after spending literally hours listening to various combinations I’ve dwindled it down to the Corsa performance cat back from the US. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem that easily obtainable in the UK, there are no UK dealers and when you punch it google I’m only getting results for Corsa of the Vauxhall variety (unsurprisingly).

 

Has anybody here heard/got/able to get hold of the cat back exhaust from Corsaperformance? If so what is it like? I want a system that sounds fruity but doesn't drone or sound like a fart cannon on the motorway as I will be clocking quite a few miles. For those who don’t know they are a Canadian company who seem to have a very good reputation with V8 owners for making quality exhaust systems with no ‘drone’.

I couldn't see an actual picture of the exhaust on their site. Nobody in the UK to my knowledge has one. In fact I've not heard of them before. 

 

In the first vid it sounds very loud. Less so in the following two videos. If you think it's loud then you will have problems if you intend on taking your car on track. Always worth bearing in mind.

That first video is deceiving as the microphone isn't actually inside the car. If it was I'm sure it would make your ears bleed! I'm pretty somebody across the pond measured it at around 90dB, but that basically means nothing to me as they didn't state how, what RPM or where they measured that figure. If you open up their PDF catalog its in there, although no proper picture, a quick search through FT86 Club will have pics.
