Default Anybody with Corsa's in central NC?

Hey, I am pretty sure I want to get a Corsa axle-back exhaust for my gt. I want to know if anyone in central NC has this set up with no other exhaust modifications so that I can meet you somewhere to hear what it sounds like in person. I have listened to many sound clips online, but I don't want to blow 700 bucks on something I might not like. Thanks in advance!

I live in central/eastern NC, but I have Borla stingers, not Corsas.

I have heard from some that the stingers will drone. I bet they do sound nice at high rpms though.

The drone is manageable and can be eliminated with a downshift. It's only bad in 5th gear on a hill climb. I just put it in 4th and give it some gas. I don't really care for the 5th gear anyway unless I'm going about 75 or 80.

I live in Charlotte and have Corsa's. I love the sound and the fact that they have ZERO drone. After driving a truck with Flows on it for a few years it was nice to have a performance muffler that didn't buzz the entire cabin. What part of the state are you in?

Unfortunatly, I live near the coast in Elizabeth City. I would still recomend them though, you wouldn't be disapointed.

I'm in Raleigh, if possible would like to find someone within about an hour of me. Thanks for the input though!

Is it possible for the mufflers to go through a break-in period after which they no longer drone? The reason I ask is that I have not noticed my stingers droning for a long time. They used to drone everytime I drove it in the "drone zone". Now, even on a hill climb in 5th gear, there doesn't seem to be any cabin drone. Or could the cold weather have stopped the drone? Anyway, whatever happened, I'm very happy with my stingers....even more so now.
