Corsa X-Pipe now Available for Full Corsa Cat-backs or stock Suitcase

Corsa has released an X Pipe and full Cat-back Kits. Solving the issue of cutting the factory exhaust and having to run X Pipes that are either custom made or from Borla etc. The New Corsa X Pipe is 3" but necks to 2.75" so it can seamlessly connect to either a Corsa Axle Back or the Stock NPP Suitcase without issue.

I currently run a Corsa 14784 Axle Back and a Borla 60606 X Pipe, which I have a massive thread on here. This new full Corsa setup will be the best exhaust setup for the ZL1 IMO. High quality, no cutting, no drone, control with your foot, and amazing sounding in all situations.

Here's the link to 2017+ ZL1 products.

More Info:

Ok let's get this straight...

Adding the X Pipe to a Corsa Axle Back rated "Sport" changes the sound rating to "Xtreme". Adding an X Pipe to a Corsa Axle Back rated "Xtreme" changes the sound rating to "Xtreme+".

14788 = X Pipe. 3" Double Helix X Pipe that necks to 2.75" to connect to the axle backs. It's $817.
14770 = Xtreme+ Cat-Back. 3" Double Helix X Pipe that necks down to 2.75" AND 2.75" Xtreme sound level quad-tip Axle Back. It's $2077.
14772 = Xtreme Cat-Back. 3" Double Helix X Pipe that necks down to 2.75" AND 2.75" Sport sound level quad-tip Axle Back. It's $2267.

Ignore the 14773 and 14771. They're also Xtreme and Xtreme+ cat-backs but they're DUAL TIP, which you do not want. I'm not sure how that'll fit in the ZL1's diffuser. More than likely these are for SS-non quad tip cars. Or perhaps it's engineered to fit, you'll want to contact Corsa on that.

More breakdown...
There's only ONE X-Pipe. The 14788. It's the Same X Pipe in every cat-back and available alone for $817.
There's only TWO Quad Tip Axle Backs. The Sport and Xtreme.
There's only TWO Dual Tip Axle Backs. The Sport and Xtreme.
There's only FOUR Cat-backs which are ALL FOUR Axle Back Options (2 quads, 2 duals) each combined with the 14788 X Pipe.

The two axle backs you want are 14770 and 14772, the quad tip options.

14788 X Pipe = 14788 X Pipe Only
14772 Xtreme Cat-Back = 14788 X Pipe + Sport Quad Tip Axle Back
14770 Xtreme+ Cat-Back = 14788 X Pipe + Xtreme Quad Tip Axle Back

This should make it clearer. By the way this isn't off the wall. This is what they do with the C7 Z06 too. 2 Axle backs, 1 X pipe, combination of the two results in Xtreme or Xtreme+. Again, adding an X Pipe to a Sport sound level changes the sound rating to Xtreme. Adding an X Pipe to an Xtreme axle back changes the sound rating to Xtreme+. Shown here:

Sport = Sport Axle Back Only
Xtreme = Xtreme Axle Back by itself OR Sport Axle Back + X Pipe (Xtreme Cat-back) - 14772
Xtreme+ = Xtreme Axle Back + X Pipe (Xtreme+ Axle Back)- 14770

Sport + X Pipe = Xtreme
Xtreme + X pipe = Xtreme+

TL;DR - If you have a ZL1, get the 14770 or 14772. The 72 is going to be a touch more tame, quieter. The 70 is going to be the loudest option.
