For anyone who as a Corsa exhaust system.

As you may know you have to cut your stock exhaust system to remove it. How the hell am i going to reinstall the stock exhaust? Because you have to cut it where the pipe is bent.

Thanks guys!

Duh lol. I was thinking that it would be hard to weld it because its at an extreme angle. And there isn't much room to manuever a MIG gun in there.

I have the Corsa Sport and I am very impressed with the gains, sound and gas mileage.
I went from 9.8 L per 100K down to 8.4-8.6L per 100K, and I am on it a little more cause I love the sound..

The quality of this system is very impressive.

You have to saw the stock exhaust axl pipe in half, thats a GM trademark
Use a sawzall it will take you 10 seconds.

Great choice of catback its worth every penny, you get what you pay for.
You might as well throw on a high flow cat while you're at it, or do a delete you can swap.

I did weld the older tip onto my buddy's 4 wheeler, but now its on my other friends Neon...lol

Edit: Dude, do this yourself, it will take about 30 mins...... I spent more time on that one upper airbox bolt than it did to swap out my entire exhaust.

I know. I've had it on for about a year now. It was the easiest install ever! I was only wondering how hard it would be to weld the stocker back in there.

not hard at all if you're good at welding. It would be pretty cheap.
btw when I was referring to hi flow cat I guess I should have just cut straight to it and said gut it\ delete it... lol The cat on the balt isnt that bad at all, I hear the real bottle neck is the downpipe, is this correct ?
