And wow is it awesome!!!

I was out at A&A Corvettes in Ventura yesterday afternoon getting the TPIS headers taken out and the OEM pieces all back in and when we got the back end of the intermediate pipe, Andy pops up and says, "you know, I got this Corsa Pace Car system just sitting up there on the shelf that just came off another car". I was like "OH REAAAALLLLY.....how much???". $200 plus my old mufflers. SOLD! I made sure to inspect it and they even cleaned it all up, polising the tips and all. Hell it looked brand new. Now the car sounds like a 500 HP BEAST!!!

I will try to get some video of it with sound this weekend but in the mean time if you want to get an idea what it sounds like go here and click on the C5 Pace Car link.

Man I am laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh the whole time I drive it. It has just an awesome sound when you push the go pedal but there is NO DRONE when just cruising around.

Good job and an excellent price too!

Gotta love the sound the corsa's have. I have to admit I love my B&B PRT's a little more but I had a hard time deciding between the two.

Why did you remove the headers, weren't happy with them?

I'm guessing California emissions law?

The exhaust upgrade is the first thing to do. It makes the corvette sound like a vette not a caprice. Great deal! you stole them puppies. Enjoy the sound and the extra $400
