I have bassani street race axle backs with a full offroad exhaust.... No drone or a hint of drone.
Same when i had the stock headers and midpipe.

I have the same set up and I won't change it. It's unassuming at idle, just enough under light acceleration and you know it's not stock at full throttle. I also tote my kids around in it and I don't want to drone them out
I have the GT500 axle back and off road h pipe and I absolutely love the sound. It's perfectly calm when cruising but louder when accelerating. Wouldn't have any other combo.
Did you ever have the same setup, only difference were stock mufflers? That's what I have now, and I don't like the higher pitched "tinny" sound of them.
I was till I heard them next to a set of Flowmasters on an O/R H and realized how loud and raspy my exhaust is in comparison. I originally didn't think it was. I have been looking at the Corsa Extremes after hearing them both in person and it just sounds so deep and mean.
Don't get me wrong, the Borla still sound amazing.
Off Road H and GT500.. I ditched my Steedas by Borla for the GT500s...better tone, and quiet at hwy and idle..Nice from the back outside:

Corsa sports, headers, orx, jpc ota pipes... un bearable at anything over 1% throttle. had to put the stockers back on. if you plan on running those super free flowing mufflers keep in mind later on when you open the exhaust up you will have to add a 12-16" bullet muffler to each side to keep noise down.
Corsa is a work of art.
that surge...is killing your centri supercharger...
I have the 13 GT500's.. got them from Tousley... with the valance for waaay cheaper than what your link show's from AM. You might want to check out a 13 conversion kit from them. With the Magnaflow 3" x pipe they really come alive. Pretty damn loud when on it, not that loud at all on the highway and just cruising around. No drone. I really like the way they sound... to me it's more of an old school muscle car sound. :beer:
I have roush axle backs, the sound good but they do get loud under hard acceleration. A little too loud for a stock car, if you plan on going catless I'd look elsewhere honestly.
op has a 12 though, if he did the conversion would be a few thousands...op should get the 12 and under gt500 axle backs. basically what he wants. it is quiet when cruising, but when you get on it it gets somewhat louder. now, add the lethal ota pipes and a h/x and maybe catless, it will get even louder and sound nice.
kooks headers, or x, and kooks mufflers. It is very raspy and sounds plain awesome in person. It is also really quite inside the car but screams outside. ZERO drone
an offroad H pipe would likely take away the higher pitch rasp
Thats kind of a bummer to hear since I absolutely love the tone of the mufflers.
That's the best part:rolling:
Off road H and GT 500 sounds best on these cars imo.
I posted a YouTube video on here of the corsa Xtremes with long tubes and offroad h. It wasn't pleasant.

Hmm.. maybe its my laptop speakers here at work, but it sounds pretty wicked.
