I'm interested in how you handle the exhaust :)

3" single to a y pipe into two 3" pipes to the exhaust. Not much to it?

Goes to the exhaust shop this week.

Bumper is on. Took about 5 minutes to put it on. Took another 10 to get the spare tire down and put away.

Pics later.

Did you keep the Corsa and just reroute the pipes after the muffler? I'd love to hear a sound clip :drool:

Also, I'm assuming you just ditched the spare or were you able to route it in such a way that the spare was able to stay?

Spare is gone. No need for a spare. It won't fit over the Wilwood brakes anyhow so I don't see the point in keeping it. Needless to say if I really did have to put a spare on, I'd just have AAA tow it.

Corsa is still on. Ran a 3" split to twin 3" pipes and out to the back. Sounds the same as the Corsa did before, sound clips would be identical.

I wasn't sure if the extra pipe would quiet it down any so therefore changing the tone slightly. Sounds good!

Nah, it's the same. Looks wicked tho. They flattened the 3" piping out towards the chrome tip so it's more oval. Love everything about it.

Got alot of components so far!

ok... so Jacob, I take back what I said. The exhaust tone is indeed different. But, for what I consider the better. It took the deep hoarse sounding Corsa and made it more of a throatier sound. It sounds tough as shit driving. Very deep, sounds like this ***** means business, lol.

Now, on to the pics. We had the Corsa cut off right about the axle, split in a 3" dual outlet, and then out to the tips. They go into each tip about 1" or so. Wife absolutely loves it.

(NO SOUND CLIP IS GOING TO DUPLICATE THE IN PERSON SOUND, SO I WON'T BE DOING ONE).

So much happier now.

As soon as I get a good weekend to get her cleaned, I'll be taking a boatload of photos and off to ebay she goes!
