    Hello, I'm interested in purchasing a Corsa catback, preferably model number 14184, but will take another tip style. Thanks for your time.

    Good luck. I never see em used...not many spend that much on just a catback..last one ive seen sold used went for nearly 1000$
    You may want to bite the bullet and just drop the 1200$ on new.

    I figured, but it's worth a shot. Do you have any comparable recommendations. I live at the beach so I definitely want a stainless system and I'm looking for little to no drone while cruising. I've heard Corsas and they sound great when you get on it and near stock when you're cruising.

    They're droney.

    I heard a couple locally back when.

    You can always just buy some universal Corsa mufflers and toss them on. The catback isn't a restriction. If you did those coupled with the factory resonator or a new walker replacement and a high flow converter (or no cat if Delaware doesn't care about emissions)...those will work too and have just as good of an exhaust note and save you a good chunk of coin along the way.

    Look at Borla. They sound great, and with a stock resonator there is hardly any drone. I think they stopped making kits for the GP, but for the price, buy the mufflers and tips and have an exhaust shop bend the rest in stainless.

    you thought so? I like my Corsa. It has a nice rumble at idle, but it's pretty quiet cruising and typical 3800 annoying at WOT

    What do you guys think about ZZP cat backs? I hear people saying the newer kits have much less drone. I'd go the muffler route but I have the base model Grand Prix with single exhaust. This past winter I did Bully Flo ported and polished heads and matching LIM, HV3 insert, 105 lb crow cam springs, modified retainers, Yella Terra 1.84:1 roller rockers, front and rear power logs and ZZP downpipe with high flow cat. I want this car to growl when I get on it but not have a headache on long road trips.

    I bought the Corsa catback and absolutely love it!!! Get so many compliments on the sound. Not raspy, no drone, def worth the $1200. You get what you pay for when it comes to exhaust.

    Zzp sounds like ****.. To loud and raspy. Corsa.. Well you'll be paying a arm and leg for it, IMO I'd just build your own exhaust and grab the piping from mandrel bend exhaust then choose whatever muffler you want (most of us love borla xs pro) then throw on the longest resonator that you can.
