Its really a matter of opinion and personal taste. I would go with one that you like the best. You cant go wrong with either, corsa, borla or awe. If NPP is a function you want to keep, then consider that as well. I personally had like 5 different types of exhausts on my ZL1 and the Borla S-Stype is the one i kept.

Ask this question and you'll get a different opinion everytime. There's no power difference so its really just a sound preference. That being said, that video left out the best sounding exhaust of them all with the best looking tips, the AWE resonated touring exhaust.

Are you saying there's no power improvement with these systems or is the improvement the same? I asked Corsa this via email recently but did not get a reply.

There is no “best.” If there was, we’d all be running it. Purely subjective. FWIW, I run LT headers, no cats and the full ARH exhaust system including ARH mufflers. Has a great low old school muscle car rumble at idle, no rasp, some part throttle drone but not at the annoying level to me and an awesome roar at full throttle. Not a commonly used exhaust, bit I like it. The “best” will be what sounds best to you.

I’m thinking of getting a Corsa X pipe to connect to the stock suitcase muffler but don’t know if it would really be worth the money since mine will still have the factory exhaust manifolds and converters.

Full exhaust is where you'll see an overall gain. |

Going to be practically the same among all of them. The biggest restriction in the exhaust is the stock manifolds and cats.

LT's and factory muffler sounds so damn good! Valves also just make the whole story better
It is plenty loud |

The factory suitcase sounds like a tin can IMO.
