Default Corsa Crossover Pipe - anyone using it?

I've been doing some searching and just spent a couple hours reading about some offroad H pipes with Corsa mufflers so I went price hunting. While looking I found lmperformance.com selling a Corsa Crossover pipe but I can't find any sound samples with it compared to the stock H pipe.

Basically I want my Corsas a little bit louder and thought that changing the stock H pipe would be enough, but I can't find many sound samples. Curious to know what difference this simple little Corsa Crossover pipe would make.

Anyone that's currently running Corsas with other exhaust mods, could you point me toward your sound clips?

Thanks!

If you're asking about the corsa X-pipe, I have it. Don't really notice a difference. I mean, it's nice to have with my corsa axlebacks, but I'm not sure it was really worth it.

The volume control is in your cats. Replace them with high-flow cats and your volume goes up quite a bit.

You could remove them completely (replace with straight pipes and get a tune adjustment for it) and the volume would go way, way up. Bet often, this "off-road" setup changes the exhaust sound substantially, adding a lot of rasp and doesn't sound good.

So for what I want I'd be better replacing the stock cats with Hi Flow cats that have a new H pipe to replace the stock cats/H pipe? I think the Corsa gear sounds great but I just want it a little louder.

Would that swap require a new tune?

It is probably easier and cheaper to find a (high flow) catted H pipe or catted x pipe than find some high flow cats that a muffler shop would need to hack & weld on to your stock h pipe.

No new tune needed for high-flow cats. You would need a tune if you got rid of your cats.
