Gmpp performance exhaust?

Ok so i was planning on getting this exhaust from crate engine depot but now they have it for 520. It used to be 357 now its just a plain rip off for that exhaust because I can go to modern performance and get borla exhaust for 500. Crate engine should do something about this. Any opinions?

GM had a price increase on Jan 1st up over $160.00 to the existing price.
I called in a couple of favors and I will keep the price at the existing price as long as inventory lasts. I will be posting up something later today. I tried to post this up yesturday but the site was down all day. Look for the old price on our site.

Email me if you have any questions.

Holy crap... so this means the Corsa is now cheaper?

I guess GM just dosen't want to sell exhausts anymore.

Ofcourse this may be due to the upcoming SS/TC... which will probably have a whole new exhaust... so the parts may not be interchangable anymore.

The borla is 2.25 too, actually they are the same thing except borla welded their tip on . They even look identical.

Hmmfff... guess I'll be buying the borla instead of the gmpp, it's a shame, I like the sound the best out of all the clips I'd heard.

anyone see that you can get a 2.5" mandrel bent over axle pipe for the stock muffler or an after market muffler that replaces the 2.25" section of the stock exhaust. I think its around a 90bucks or so.

People have been saying that since this car has been out and its cheaper and prolly better flowing compared to GMPP. I didn't go that route because i didn't want to guess on a muffler , i knew what the GMPP sounded like . With a muffler its kind of a craps shoot.
