I've been meaning to post a video of my new Corsa for about 2 months now. I installed it at the beginning of June, but with the pace of work, getting a dog, and moving I haven't had time. It is the PN #14405 full cat back with chrome tips, it is also available with black tips.
I was also looking at the Borla because I consider Borla and Corsa to be top tier exhausts, but I like the design of the Corsa better. The Borla is a perforated jacket glasspack design, whereas the Corsa is a straight through with side chambers that cancel out drone. In the cab it sounds about like the stock exhaust but is much louder outside, and feels like it is freer flowing than either the stock exhaust or the Borla XR-1 I had welded in. It also doesn't drone like the Borla did.
Unfortunately I didn't get any pics of the install, but I'm not sure how useful they'd have been anyway since I had to use a sawzall to remove the previous muffler because the guy who welded it in welded everything backfrom the muffler together into one piece.
Sound wise I'd describe it as throaty rather than burbly like the Borla was. I like a burbly exhaust, but the sound in the cab with the Borla got obnoxious over prolonged periods of time running over 2000 RPM so towing anything over a long distance it was kind of a turn off. The Corsa is only loud to tow with when you have a box trailer behind you and the sound bounces back.
Install was easy following the directions. I used my torque wrench (required a deep socket to get tight over the bolts) and have had no issues with it. I really think the chamfered 4.5" tips are the perfect size, now I feel like all the guys with stock duals have little tips in their big bumper cutouts. IMHO the 5" Borla double walled tips look too big and googly.
Without further ado:
