Default Re: Corsa Exhaust - Black Tip Version

Sorry I don't have a picture of the black tip Corsa on a car but here is a picture from their website along with a picture of a stock '94 exhaust. I used Corsas for many years when I had my ZR-1s and liked them. The problem of trying to look stock, as you know, is that stock has a single wide rectangular black painted tip, not twin outlets. The only rectangular tip cat back exhaust I found in a quick search was from Borla and I am not sure it fits the LT5. After many years with Corsas, I decided that for my '95 I really wanted to go back to a stock look but retain the ability to have a loud freer flowing exhaust, so I had Marc install QTP electric cutouts right in front of the mufflers (different from his normal location to retain my spare tire carrier). I also installed a rocker switch hidden under the carpet on the passenger side of the console to control them. This setup allow me to have a stock look and sound when I wanted it, but also to open them up for a low rumble or a full straight pipes sound. I normally left the cutouts about one third open for around town use. I really liked the setup and would do it again if I ever get another ZR-1. Apologies that this doesn't really answer your main question but hopefully helps with ideas. --Bob
