Well people we are really starting to get together a nice database of information on the exhaust packages. Thanks again to all the contributors, really helps those of us who have yet to purchase one.

Thanks to Doc for his newest videos of the GMPP Sport exhaust.

Corsa no longer has a firm lead in the voting, and only had a 4 vote lead over magnaflow when i last checked this. GMPP is slowly gaining votes after Docs new videos.

Thank you Doc for the videos also. Those will really help anyone who is considering the GMPP exhaust.

Anyone here have the GMPP touring yet?
I believe we've determined the GMPP was Borla. Who was it that posted that it said Borla on the instruction sheets?

on a base cobalt with no ground effects do you think the straight tip or the angled tip would look better? also will the gmpp exhaust sound the same on the 2.2 cobalt as well?

it does say borla on the bottom of the Instructions. Appearance wise. its a damn good looking muffler. its for GM Performance Parts in the metal on the resonator and muffler. looks cool.

Is the 2.25in Piping going to limit us to yield the most power that we can get out of an exhaust? Wouldn't we want 2.5-3.0 inch

Has anyone removed there cat yet? If i were to remove my cat and install the Magnaflow exhaust system, what should i take into consideration? Will i throw an CEL's or will i need to get a o2 Simulator. Not saying I'm going to do it, but just something that came to mind.

you can unbolt it. You'll have to save the old exhaust if your serious about returning it to stock.

I hate exhausts that do that. Saw/heard an SRT4 with a Corsa at a track event with an exhaust that did that and it sounded like ass.

They are all going to do that, the stock even does it, you won't be able to avoid it.
