You may see my post about a car I looked at. I just called the guy and
was told the exhaust was borla stingers he thinks. Just the mufflers
he said not the entire system. Is this much louder then stock? Thanks

Yes, it's an ugly sound but only at WOT. I prefer the Corsa.

It is not just the ugly sound ..it is the in car DRONE that will drive you
up the wall..ever wonder why so many Bola mufflers are on sale on
ebay...most are advertised as new..used only one week..my wife thought they
were too loud...etc.etc. (.I sold mine at 1/2 price after two weeks of
headaches...)..complete waste of money..Stick to Corsa or if you can get the
best ones ever made try to find a set of Italian made mufflers used on a
Ferrari or a Pantera...I forget the mfg name...but they did make them for a
Corvette.about $250 a pair.

You are talking about the Tubi catback I think. I put it on my coupe. Tubi
is a much more expensive system than Borla. I paid about $1200 for mine on
Ebay.. my other C5 has Borla stingers on them. I like the Stingers better.
The drone is less with the Stingers than it is with the Tubi's. They sound
totally different. The Tubi's are more refined.. but i can tell you that 3
or 4 hours with the Tubis at highway speeds and you feel like you just
landed on the space shuttle or something. lol. I took my Dad to Atlantic
city one time.. for a one day trip.. lol.. 15 Tequilas plus Tubi = a hell of
a headache -=into=- the next day.

Borla makes less aggressive systems also BTW. Haven't heard a Corsa..
