Default Corsa Exhaust????

I just picked up my NEW 2011 dodge ram 1500 and love the sound of the corsa exhaust just its a pretty penny...... Any feed back from guys out there that have had or have a corsa exhaust. Is it worth the buck or should i stick to a flowmaster 40 series? Any info will help Thanks

flowmaster, I'd stay away from...pretty restrictive mufflers (aka slowmaster), plus the quality of rotting out... Just my two cents...Remember, you pay for what you get.... What are you looking to do, catback exhaust or just a muffler swap?

I just put in Stainless Magnaflow Cat Back exhaust w/ 5" double walled SS Tips and a free flow y pipe in my truck. Here's the link to my post if you'd like to look at it, I can try and get a video clip sometime this week if your interested...

I have the corsa and will tell you that if you don't like drone then corsa is for you. Mine is as quiet as stock cruising down the road and roars when you floor it. It is a more raspy note compared to magnaflow. I originally had an 18" mufflex system which is a magnflow muffler and liked it but the drone got to be too annoying for me and when I towed our enclosed trailer it was way too much since it would bounce back off the front of the trailer. I have a couple vids i can link but I will tell you now that the outside shot does it no justice for how loud it really gets when you get on it, but it does give you an idea of the overall sound.

JAYMAN, excellent videos!! The corsa does sound pretty sweet, your right though, it is just a little more "raspy" than the magnaflow. The magnaflow has that "deeper tone".

My friends tell me that my corsa exhaust is just as loud as my magnaflow was when I floor it.

I was going to put an especially witty response but can't sum it up any better than Jay. I too tried the mufflex...drone was a killer. Added a 2nd inline muffler to try and tone it down...didn't work. Scrapped the whole thing and got the corsa. Sounds great, no drone at all and you can tell when the trucks running. Off the line it has a great tone and I have had 0 complaints from the wife & kids.

About a month into it it started to rattle...then got worse...then got horrible. A baffle broke inside the muffler. Called up corsa and had a new one in a few days no questions asked. THat was 6 months ago and the new one's been fine ever since.
