FYI - The GMPP Catback and the Borla Catback are identical except for the stamping "GM Performance Parts" on the muffler and resonator

Really? I wasn't aware of this, hmmm, I think I would rather go with corsa anyways unless i can get a good price on borla. I like the way the 2 sound.

The GMPP sounds Identical to the borla, I have the GMPP and love the sound, keep in mind the Corsa Touring is the one you want as the Corsa Sport is really loud! Either way a GMPP / Borla are the same and there are alot more peopl on the site with the GMPP exhausts than the Borla, might be easier for you to find.

Go to youtube.com and type gmpp catback and it will have lots of sound clips

ACTUALLY, it was found out that Borla and the GMPD aren't the same. GM's is actually made by another company. But another place another time for that.

I have the Corsa Sport

Nice, keep me updated if you decide to sell. I would get a 3" but I don't put out enough power yet for that.

Well, when I get on it hard... (I have a 2.0) Ive been told it sounds very loud. Any1 in the back seat will hear nothing but the Exhuast. lol But I think It sounds great. I like it down low, Mid, and low gear slow down. Up top i think it might be a lil rice-ish

I had corsa touring on my ss/sc it was perfect tone, then I added header and catless downpipe and it was pure sex, not too loud unless you accel hard past 3k...

one piece of advice though if you buy a used corsa.... the lifetime warranty is only good for the orignal owner, and doesn't transfer

Ohh, I didn't know that. But in your opinion, do you think anything would go wrong with it. I just really don't want to send the 850 for a new exhaust...as much as I would love for it to be brand new lol.

Some guys with corsa's havent had the best luck with the resonator's cracking on the weld , and rattling on the inside . Ive also seen someones corsa break the welds around the muffler , so thats why i would think twice about buying a really used on ..like 15 -20K miles on it . If i could find a touring with like 5K i would jump on it.

How hard is something like that to fix or is it unfixable? What exhaust would you reccomend?

Someone said they have a lifetime warrenty if you buy them new but they are just so damn expensive.......Someone needs to do a GB lol.

Please explain? Do you have a link or other info that can validate this? Just want to clarify this for other members?

Sometimes they are fixable , other times not. I would recommend Corsa , i want a corsa touring , but i didn't want to spend the money either lol. The GM touring sounds great , i love mine , just wish it was 2.5 inch. With my mods thou the 2.25 GMPP prolly isn't holding me back too much anyways.
