Does your Corsa Exhaust sound raspy ? Try

[Mr Hemi Head]

this http://www.secureperformanceorder.com/dynatechstore/vortex.html Previous posts mentioned using these for noise reduction. I inserted a set into the tail pipes and noted some reduction in overall sound but the high frequencies are greatly reduced. The tone while cruising and light acceleration sounds more like a V8.

Easy DIY bolt on install and not expensive.IMHO

Hi Rick. Thanks for the tip.

I have a Corsa cat-back with stock exhaust manifolds on my N/A '97 GTS and love the sound. I've heard that headers can add to the rasp, so maybe the noise cones will help compensate.

BTW, love your signature. Guess you'll need a HEMI Gen IV Viper when they come out, eh?

Why would anyone want a v-10 that sounds like a v-8?

 

[Mr Hemi Head]

Bruce that is a valid question.
If you look at my signature I have been tinkering with Dodge Muscle cars for some time.(28yrs.)

I really miss the sound of these engines.

While the V10 can never sound like that the distinctive low frequency exhaust note, that I now have, is very similar.

What size did you get? Thanks for the info. I have headers and stock Cats now, but am planning to go to Random Hi Flo Cats which I am sure will increase noise. Garth

V-8 sounds awesome, the V-10 sounds.................... different. I do love the rumble of a V-8

Do you have the 3" Corsa system? I used a wood dowel to tap them in place. Drilled one hole through the pipe to secure the cone with a screw and lock nut. They suggest tack welding but I wanted to hear it first.

Can you let us hear the diff between your Corsa's before and after? Anyway to record the sound and post it here? Thanks

 

[Mr Hemi Head]

Dennis there is no way to faithfully reproduce the awesome sound of this setup.

The cones are not expensive and can easily be removed if you are not satisfied.

That raspy sound is from the High flow cats. The Corsa exhaust with stock cats has a really nice tone.

But with no Cats it's even nicer.

Dave the 66-71 HEMI cars did not run very well on the street, in stock configuration. Weak torque at the low end due to the big valves and poor turbulance in the combustion chamber were some of the negatives.

The HEMI badge on the fender or door was enough to terrorize would be challengers.

The new HEMI combustion chambers are not true hemispheres so they are HEMIs in name only.

For DC this has proven to be a marketing success.In terms of performance I'm not that impressed.
