Good video on Corsa Xtreme+ Setup on ZL1 1LE

Lot of bantering, there's some good install footage though and start up around the 4:30 mark. This is an Xtreme Axle Back + Corsa 3" Cat-less X Pipe. Sounds exactly like mine.



Makes that Shelby sound like a rattling can of marbles.

This is an Xtreme+ Cat-Back.

Axle back + X pipe = Cat back. In short, it means comes from the Cats all the way back.

Corsa's Sound Ratings:
Xtreme Axle Back + Corsa X pipe = Xtreme+ Sound
Xtreme Axle back + STOCK X pipe = Xtreme Sound
Sport Axle back + Corsa X Pipe = Xtreme Sound
Sport Axle Back + STOCK X pipe = Sport Sound

That's how it works.

I went into greater detail on my other thread on this...

This is the system I am getting, I can't wait. I would imagine it will sound similar on the SS 1LE.

From what I understand, it is a pretty loud system, but with no drone.

When I talked to Corsa about this system, they quoted it at 112DBs

You'll love it. It's quiet and ZERO drone while cruising. Opens up a little bit at part throttle but you can pass people without sounding like a NASCAR. But at WOT it's straight from the Gods. Unbelievable sounding. Loud, aggressive. Turns a lot of heads. So make sure there are no LEOs in the surrounding area, lol.

1 month after installing the setup. I am in total love with it. Good fitment as well. Quality parts! However i recommend putting some heat wrap or heat shield near the driveshaft u-joint. If you notice, the stock system has it near the same location, to protect the driveshaft u-joint from the hear.

Nice ride you have. We're nearby and I've met Eddie a few times. Will you be at M1 for Cars and Coffee?

I have this system, quality and fit are perfect. I have to say the sound is amazing, on start up its loud and the 4:30am cold start during the week has the wife unhappy. Needless to say I just ordered corsa sports to replace the extremes. Anyone looking for extreme axleback let me know. I hope the sports don't quite it too much or change the tone cuz the extremes are how this zl1 should sound imo.

Sport should calm the really loud levels at WOT and cruising/warm idle. There’s no quieting cold starts really. Even with stock exhaust those are quite loud. Secondary cats hide most of the startup bark in my experience with both my Zl1 and Z06.

Sounds like pure sex! Mine sounds similar maybe a little less refined.

Bantering is right... Motion sick now after watching his guy, but great to hear the sound of Corsa.
