Default Corsa or Borla

If you were to pick between these two. Which would you put on?

Anyone have any sound clips of either of these catbacks? Maybe with a descent size cam?

corsa, corsa, corsa.

My buddy had corsa on his chevy 1500 5.3L. Idle was nice, cruise was nice, but when you wanted to open it up, it was badass. I'd go with that over borla.

most V6ers will say Borla. I've heard both on GP's and the Borla, by far, sounds less farty. imo

A friend with a GTP with Corsa and a Vette with SLPs said when he heard Corsa on a Vette at one of their meetings it didn't sound that great either. I've followed his GTP down the hiway before and it was terrible.

Corsa sounds awesome on V8s. But not on our cars. I have heard both, and I choose Borla. Most people will choose Borla over Corsa on our V6 engines....V8 is a different story.

I have heard that both exhaust system are very good but it would be personal preference on what you like... But for me and my needs Corsa would be hands down the best choice for me... Very quiet system and delivers the power when you needs it!
