GM Perfromance exhaust?

Is this a mandrel bent system?

I was thinking of th magnaflow 2.5" but it would bo over twice the price installed then I can get the GM system.

I was just at Magnaflows site looking for a dealer:

you could always go onto the vendor forums. i would reccomend turbo tech because if you have an ad they will price match it for you if the price is lower.

The funniest thing I find is that the GM is the cheapest but too me best sounding. Seems all other exhausts are too farty. Love the corsa but some time it sounds good some times not so good.

I used to say the same thing you said than it dawned on me that its 2 1/4 from the cat back. Which is more 2 1/4 piping than is on the stock system since the stock system is 2 1/4 from the axel back. Right there i can tell any gains from that system came from taking off that restrictive ass muffler and nothing else.

I'd have to agree with you. The cat is the next, or actually more restrictive than the muffler.

Yeah I am leaning towards Corsa. I want a fairly quiet exhuast when I am driving nice.
12hp at the wheels is probably alot more then the GM one too

You know its funny I was thinking the same thing. They don't advertise a number or even say it will increase power......thats poor marketing of them.
