Some info paul shared with me from CORSA exhaust...

Thank you for the interest and inquiry.

All CORSA exhaust kits for the Cobalt are a complete 2.5" system.

Through our research and development, we have been able to dynamically
tune these exhaust kits to move enough air to support over 550hp. This
is because we maximize exhaust gas velocity and due not incorporate any
form of baffle or steel like packing materials. In fact, these are the
same exhausts used on the GM Cup race cars. Your turbo will love this
exhaust when you add it.

As for the difference, Sport options are more aggressive in tone without
any form of resonance in the car when driving. These systems offer a
clean, distinct, and crisp tone without the high pitched sound generally
associated with 4 cyl vehicles.
The Touring is just a more-mellow version that almost equals the stock
sound levels with the exception of wide open throttle. At wide open
throttle is where you hear it.

Both kits perform and flow the same, the option boils down to your
personal tastes. As a suggestion, consider the Sport. This is due to the
fact that in my opinion, the tone really fits the vehicle. (I personally
own 2 turbo 4cyl vehicles) Also, it will become a little bit quieter
when a turbo is added.

I can ship the Sport (PT# 14123) to you for $775
and the Touring (PT# 1424)for $799. This includes free shipping for the
holiday.

Please feel free to get back to me at any point in time. I look forward
to it.

Also, feel free to use the information above to help enlighten other
Cobalt enthusiasts; I know it is a fast growing market and the forums
are quite interested.

Sincerely,
Paul Santiago

I would like to hear it when you get it done, preferably a before and after sound clip. I would love to do exhaust but scared I will hate it. If I hear it before hand then I'll know.

well, i will see what they plan on doing as far as sound clips but since these are used on the gm cup cobalts maybe you could catch them racing and hear it and i have faith that a professional race car exhaust will be just fine i havent heard clips but im sure i will like it especially if its quiet, and i dont need a 3inch cuz these exhaust are good up to 500 hp or more and i only plan on 400 max

Well... I don't plan to buy anything unless I can hear it first.... $800 is a lot of dough if I'm not happy with the sound.
