Corsa Sport: Ricey?

So my question is if the corsa sport is extremely loud and ricey sounding?

Too loud. Sounds like crap unless you have a cat.

Not even a cat or resonator saves it from buzzing like hell

I've heard it plenty of times. All I can say is, it's loud. Doesn't really sound bad though, but I don't like super loud exhausts on our cars.

I have been having trouble finding a sound clip, especially on a 2.4 which I have. I have found the touring but it sounded really low from what I could tell. I guess I'm looking for sounding that is not quiet like the stock but then again I don't want it insanely loud so that it's annoying and crappy.

The touring is not as quiet as you think. Especially if you have an aftermarket header and downpipe. Its very deep toned and definitely opens up when you get on it.

I have the corsa sport and havent had any issues with the law or anything else. Under normal throttle its like anything else, and when you get on it, well, of course it's loud.... lol

The corsa is not buzzy at all, if it was I would look at broken baffle. Just tap the two mufflers with a rubber hammer and if you hear a knocking then I would replace. All in all I get compliments with this exhaust, and never once had someone call it rice. Its a great kit if you dont mind dropping the cash. With that being said, I have heard some clips around that claim the exhaust is corsa, but it sounds nothing like mine. There was a vid here of someone on the highway punching it, and the exhaust sounds beyond rice. Maybe he had a catless dp or whatever, but sure as hell it doesnt sound like mine does.

I can get a soudclip, just give me a day or so.

Yes, it sounds very nice, a little less bass than the cora sport, and more bright. You'll feel the corsa sport before you hear it ... lol But yeah, the touring is awesome.
