[QUOTE="efnfast, post: 16550544, member: 104733"] Ordered a set of Corsa Xremes and finally got around to installing them. I can definitely now say that straight pipes (off-road H w/ Magnaflow Competition) sound like shit on the 5.8. Setup is still oem manifolds with lethal off-road H pipe. Fitment Magnaflow fitment was horrible. The passenger side fit but I spent 5hrs on the driver side and it fit like shit; I'm certain the hangers are welded in the wrong spot and have to be re-welded. Corsa's fit perfectly on both sides with minimal effort (I was surprised given the directions say they're only for a 13/14 GT ... guess exhaust fitment is the same) Idle Magnaflow are loud but high pitched and always gave me a headache. Corsa's are perfect but not high pitched, no headache. Cruising Mangnaflow is horrible drone unless you keep the rpm at/beneath 1,600RPM (in which case you're out of gear and can't do anything). Corsa's have no drone, just loud exhaust bark Low RPM (<2500) Magnaflow sound like a broken pickup truck with a horrible (horrible, even though I'm using H and not X pipe) rasp at 2,000 RPM. Corsa's sound perfect ... loud muscle car sound, no rasp at 2,000 RPM, but exhaust bark Medium/High rpm (>2500) Both are awesome Decel Popping I'm pretty sure I lost a little bit of down-low decel popping with the Corsas, but at medium/higher rpm it's still there, so Magnaflow slightly better in this regard I think. Conclusion - I love loud but pure straight pipes on a 5.8 sound like shit. edit: I've got nothing against Magnaflow ... love the setup on my 04 cobra ... it's not their fault straight pipes sound like shit on the 5.8 [/QUOTE]
