I know CorkSport makes a LOUD exhaust system, but, how bad do you think a CorkSport NA cat back would be w/ the optional silencer?

Anyone have experience with these?

Vids maybe?

 

I had the CorkSport exhaust on my GXL. Very light and very nice looking exhaust.

With the Stock cats, it was perfectly tolerable at all RPM and Throttle openings. Great Sound.

With a straight pipe and no silencer, it was extremely loud, and at highway speed would give you a headache. Had a deep tone, but I'm surprised I never got pulled over for the sound level. Would emit a 2 foot white hot flame from the muffler shifting into 4th at redline

With a straight pipe and the silencer, it was tolerable, but the performance suffered and the sound quality was poor. No flames

With a Magnaflow 6" round straight through muffler in the "cat delete pipe," and no silencer, it was nearly perfect as far as volume and sound is concerned. Flames again!

It took me a couple tries to get it how I liked it Then, I got my TII and sold the car.

I would imagine that with a "cat delete pipe" or "race pipe," and adding a high flow cat, it would be about the same volume as the second muffler I put in. And it would be almost emissions legal.

i have the Boze dual high flow cat setup (a tiny bit louder than stock).

So thats good to hear! Thanks for the info

 

If you an idea of what the car may sound like with the Corksport exhaust, click my sig and watch that video from '05 if it's still there.

Corksport exhausts tend to be f'n loud with not alot of baffling. I use a Borla exhaust now, verrrrrry mellow.

 

I will be using one along with a 4" downpipe and borla midpipe. I'll let you know what it sounds like when my car is done.

 

Borla FTW!

 

Magnaflow all the way in my opinion. If you can delete your cat put a similar sized magnaflow in place and use stock sized magnaflows throughout the exhaust system. Their warranty is great and you can't beat the price for something that sounds as good and lasts as long.

 

so how do you think it'll sound with my cats?

 

I had a corksport catback on my T2. stock cats, check out this vid from inside:

not bad at all. pretty nice infact.

got any external shots?

 

This is kind of old, but I like the tone of the exhaust. Does anyone have sound clips from outside the car?

 

I'll probably still have the CS on my car at Sevenstock.

The catback is loud in NA or TII form.

THe silencer does it's job but at the sacrifice of making the exhaust more restricted than stock. It's like a 1.5 inch outlet.

I only use it when I want to be courteous at night or if I'm going to be doing somethign devious and don't want people hearing me.

 

Any sound clips?
