Narph... when you say line up, you just mean up/down/left/right, correct? If so, that's EASY. Just pseudo tighten the clamp to the OTA pipes, and adjust the tips accordingly, then set in place, tighten.

The issues I had with Borla were front and back, and I had ZERO issues with these Corsas. The front/back issue is the one where you can't really adjust it, as it ties right into the x pipe and ota pipes. That's where I went through the Borlas and had 3 different sets that didn't line up.

Thanks Rog... Haven't been able to drive yet. Just installed it last night, and was raining. As for drone, ZERO drone, as Corsa proudly claims that in all their products. To be fair, Borla had zero drone as well. It's the Magnaflows and others, that (allegedly, I can't claim myself) have it.

The Corsa line has 3 tiers, similar to Borlas.

Touring
Sport
Extreme

Obviously, I have the Extremes and they're perrrrrrrrrrrrfect.

This guy has the best threads and reviews. I always click when i see his posts.

The setup sounds disgusting, and i mean that as a 100% compliment. I got excited that i can make mine sound that good with this kit, but then i realized you have some other goodies on there as well haha. Was gonna ask, would it be possible to manipulate the install and get the tips to stick out a little more?

Mine are front to back movement. I was going to put it off for when I did LT Headers and Midpipe. Kind of disappointing for $1k, but I'm sure I can adjust it properly once I start working on exhaust.

I'm just debating if I want to do to Exhaust/Tune first or jump to Suspension Components.

LOL... thanks sir! What do you mean by "setup"? You mean my setup and mods? lol... yes, disgusting indeed. I can't to drive the darn thing. I haven't even heard this setup on the road yet. Hopefully this weekend. Yes, I think the x pipe paired with this really helps, as Danielle eluded.

That's surprising to hear. What do you mean by 1k? For axlebacks??? That's way too expensive

My opinion, do exhaust, skip tune, then do susp components.

I bought the Corsa Quad Tips. Loved the look too much to pass up. Thinking I'm going to go with exhaust and stuff first. Really dreading the header install.

Burton, I think I hate you. I wasn't planing on doing any modding this summer, just drive, enjoy and put that money into finishing the garage stall I just built for the Mustang. Now you come with this and have me thinking I need to do some exhaust work. You're a nasty man you are.

I can't wait to get home and start her up and drive her again. Those Corsas are out of this world. I thought Borlas were awesome, then I installed these.... game over.

John... that's the beauty of these forums. We Infect one another. haha... in a good way. Exhaust and MGW are my 2 favorite mods. They provide the biggest return on satisfaction for us owners, imo. Those Corsas are seriously fantastic though. The HW itself, the looks, the fitment, and the sound. Phenomenal.

Patrick, Loud? awww come on man... that was just at 4000 rpm.... wait till I actually get ON it Videos on that will be soon.

As for the SC playing a part, hmmmmm.... maybe? But I'd say it's more so the:

a) Corsa Extremes themselves
b) x pipe
c) OTA pipe (no res)
d) garage accoustics

But yes... the thing is UNreal. LOVE IT. Can you imagine? I line up next to a Prius driver? ..... I am laughing just thinking of it.

Yes he does. Very well written.
Burton,...that is awesome. I told you Corsa was quality! I love the way the tips line up too. That's the way it should be.
Car sounds awesome. Especially when she's getting angry!

They sound and look great!! I love how Corsa angles their tips, adds such a nice touch to the lines back there. My Kooks axleback are angled too but the Corsa tips are second to none

****, I have to stop listening to your clips. Keep telling my self I don't need them...I don't need them...lol

I always forget you have the corsa quads too. In black SS! Very nice sir. You have a thread and vids too? I really want to compare the corsa quads with the regular corsa extremes that I have. I wonder how they sound comparatively?

Beautiful tips though man... I love yours.

Thanks tony!!! Yeah they lined up pretty much right off the bat! I was ecstatic. I haven't started her up since last night. Hopefully tomorrow I can drive her. I love how the personality goes from mild to wild at the simple jab of the throttle. It's crazy...

Thanks man! You know what's funny? I was seriously listening to the sound clip I made over and over again, during my workout this morning as I was lifting and just throughout the workday. I just enjoyed it so much. That sound is just addicting... Literally. I absolutely love it.

It sounds great. And they look spectacular. Fitment does look perfect. SS tips match great. I know you were contemplating on a different finish but man they are a home run. Congrats

Installed them in January. A bit more involved than your install.




Sorry for the crappy video. Been meaning to strap my go pro on the car and do a video.
