Default Question for last weekend's cruise participants

I'm trying to decide whether to mod my set of Corsa's to get them on the car with the new bumper, or just leave the Saleen mufflers on it. The Saleen ones are a bit noisier while cruising, but I think I could adjust.

Several of the people at the cruise seemed to think they were decent, and I've had a couple people at stop lights comment favorably this week.

Sort of leaning towards maybe leaving well enough alone. Opinions?

i'd keep em on...when you were filiming and you drove by me on the way to texas roadhouse, it sounded really good...i like corsas too, but you've got a really good setup...ultimately it comes down to you...you have to listen to it everytime you drive, but what you have now sounds really good...good luck with whichever you decide on, it'll still sound good

I like the look as it is a little different and sounds awsome as well

Just an update on this: After living with the other mufflers for a while, I decided I really missed the Corsas. I whacked the tips off yesterday and fabbed up attachments for the Saleen tips. Turned out well, though it was a bit tricky on the drivers side.

Really enjoying having them back. They're nice, but somewhat understated at idle, have ZERO drone at any speed, but get up to about 2/3's throttle and they sound as aggressive as anything you're likely to come across
