Corsa Xtreme+, AWE, or Corsa Axleback & Borla X Pipe

Hi All -

I'm trying to figure out which exhaust to go with on my ZL1. It's a 6 speed so my understanding is that I can go catback without any issues.

I had an S550 Mustang GT a few years ago. Installed a Corsa Xtreme catback on it and loved it, although I thought it was a bit quiet. Eventually went with headers as well which was just way too much- you could hear it from over a mile away at WOT.

Anway, I'm trying to figure out what to go with now and I've narrowed it down to a few options:

Corsa Xtreme+ Catback - Corsa Axleback with the Corsa Double X Pipe - I think this is the same setup as what they were just calling the Xtreme catback on the Mustang

Corsa Xtreme Axleback with a Borla Midpipe - I've seen a lot of this setup online. How does this sound compared to full Corsa? Any advantages here or is this just because Corsa took a while to bring out their double X pipe?

AWE Catback - I'm having a tough time figuring out which of these is roughly the same loudness as the Xtreme+ Catback. I'm guessing the unresonated Touring setup? Is AWE deeper than Corsa? It's tough to tell without hearing it in person.

Appreciate any input. I'm loving the car so far and think the stock exhaust sounds okay with the fuse pulled, but its just way too quiet. I'm throwing the Rotofab intake on it shortly as well.

I have the AWE Touring and to me it sounds more exotic than deep.

I am also on the market for either a corsa double helix x pipe or the borla x pipe. Seems a lot more people have the borla but apparently it came out first. I like that the Corsa comes with all necessary accessories including a clamp to mate it up to the stock muffler as I'll be keeping that.
