If you currently own or are looking to own a Corsa system, and like/want the Xtreme sound but with the Sport catback volume, there is a solution!

Sport axleback + Magnaflow 11386 dual in/out Tru-X mid muffler. My video below does a half-decent job portraying the sound, but as with all of these, in person it is way better. It is a custom job that will need to be welded in, but the results are worth it. I paid $80 to have the stock resonator removed and replaced with the muffler in a well-off Chicago suburb, so it would be similar or less in most areas of the country. They cut off the ends of the resonator to the front catback clamps are still intact. I met up with a coworker today who has the Xtreme catback and he gave it :thumbsup:.

That is pretty close, maybe a little deeper tone than my extreme. The one thing is when letting off its missing the crackles and pops because of the resonator. At WOT it's the same sound

Yes a little bit but it still has some. The overrun sound is pretty nice still as you heard!

Another short one. This was made on a GoPro but no external mic.

Sounds really good, the Tru-X should be just the ticket to use with my Corsa Touring. Plan is to head down to "The Mustang Shop" to get a recommendation on a decent exhaust place to do the work.

Does sound pretty sweet. Maybe a little deeper than the Xtreme, but awesome nonetheless.

I think that cross over thought you were about to eat it. At least you gave it a head start.

Yeah it might be a bit deeper but overall the same kind of sound. When you're hard on the gas it has the same visceral edge and tone, just maybe a half an octave deeper. Still exotic and racy. I did seriously consider adding a second X behind the magnaflow, but ended up not doing that. I am so happy with it that I wouldn't spend the money to find out.

It probably is very similar. It was hard to tell because you only had revs in yours, but you know what yours sounds like when driving. I'm definitely loving it and finally done with exhaust.

Well [MENTION=25353]66sprint6[/MENTION] since I saw you just posted these I figured I'd share to give some additional video for those considering this. It should sound nearly identical to mine:
