Corsa Performance Xtreme Catback Exhaust (Double-X Mid-pipe)!

[Twenty15]

Have any pictures from different angles with the car in the ground? You have the setup I was looking at doing and on the same color car. Just wanted to see how it looked.

I will get some tonight. The car is really dirty right now.

Oppo said basically what I was going to say - it's a really amazing exhaust system, and not just because of the note itself - but because it's very driver controlled. It's very direct and more or less, you control what it sounds like by the way you drive.

Other than the cold start itself, haha.

Outside of the first half minute-minute following a cold start, you are very easily within the realms of a "normal" sports car type exhaust. It's low and it rumbles, you feel the engine pulsing more than you hear the tips barking. This continues to to about 2500, and can actually keep going, if you keep your foot in check, to a great degree.

Start throttling and it starts to scream - not in a raspy way, but the low rumble is still there, it just adds this really aggressive snarl that's slightly (read: completely) intoxicating. 3500-4500 or so.

Anything from 4500 - Redline is basically strapping yourself onto Satan's back, telling him you're going in dry, hammering a shot of whiskey, and listening to that bastard with the bifurcated tail trying to throw you off.

And while the sound in itself is really awesome in and of itself, I mainly appreciate the distinctive notes at different levels, directly tied to my foot/gear, as it gives me a very intuitive method to drive blind, without relying on gauges.

One of the things I most disliked about the 15' 5.0 is how quiet it was overall. Not just because it didn't sound like I was expecting, but being a very aural person, a lot of my sensory input is based on what I'm hearing. Without all of those crazy engine noises, it was somewhat of a blurry experience.

Now - you know where you are.Immediately.

Then, you get into 6th gear to cruise - and you can have a conversation, listen to music, etc., as it damn near disappears entirely. In 6th at about a 70mph pace, I hear more road noise than I do exhaust.

Plus the tips are wicked looking.

Jay was awesome. Hypermotive really came through. It is the best system I've heard, and I can't be happier that I decided to go with this and wait it out.

When you want signature sound, it's something that will cost you - but considering the out of pocket for most of the competitive systems out right now, I can't imagine you'll find another that is as distinct at such a reasonable price.


Fantastic job all around. Corsa rules.

Unbelievable! I cant believe how much I love this exhaust. Received saturday and finally got around to having it installed this morning. Quick background, the only other car I had with an after market exhaust was my 08 mustang gt which had MAC axlebacks. It's night and day difference. NO drone what so ever. When you punch it WOW! Just has its own distinct sound like others have mentioned. Thanks to everyone who shared input on this thread and others which helped make the decision easier. Also big thanks to Jay at Hypermotive for his awesome customer service ans Shawn from Corsa for his great product.

It is going to be Thursday before I can get any shots. Bear with me.

No problem. I appreciate that you're willing to take the time to do it. :cheers:

Installation Time! (hoping the pictures work)

The exhaust sounds demonic. It's insane. What everyone has said so far is spot on. It's quiet when you want. Loud when you want. Definitely turns head wherever you go. Big thanks to beef and thanks to Corsa for making such an awesome product!

Woot! It tingles the earballs just so! Best exhaust EVAR!

Not to be a jerk and be negative, but your exhaust will look a ton better if it was centered and raised up a bit. But ya, this exhaust is the absolute shitz.

No you're absolutely right. I couldn't get the alignment right on my own so I took it to a shop this morning that took care of it for me.
better pics to come when I get around to it.

Oppo and Rusted's reviews have captured everything I could say about this Corsa exhaust. It really is that good. I am also one of the members that Upgraded from another aftermarket exhaust setup I was running and I am completely happy with my decision. This system is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks Corsa!

May I ask what you were running before and the reason for the change? Sounds like Corsa met your wants/needs compared to the prior system.
