    Kooks or Stainless Works Headers for My Corsa Extreme?

    I have a stainless works catback and it made a very big difference in sound, the corsa systems ive heard do the same. After installing multiple people asked what did I do to the exhaust. I'm still debating adding headers later on for more sound. The valves work great to make the cold starts...

    The Blackwing Spotting Thread

    I ride by and honk at all the blackwings I spot. Saw an electric blue 4BW on the southwest freeway yesterday. I dont know if your part of the Houston Chapter V-Club but we've had some great events the past few months.

    I think ARH, Stainless works and Kooks are using the Gesi green cats on the 5BW, the latter 2 definitely use the gesi cats. the 3rd Gen CTSvs use different cats on there longtubes sets

    Annnnnd, we're back. Massive Lifter Knock in my 5BW

    My lifter tick just popped up out of nowhere one morning. No CEL, misfire or loss of performance. Took it to the dealership, and after the full teardown the lifter failure bent a rod and tanked the engine. Engine was replaced with no issues from GM.

    Help Kooks Headers vs Corsa CB Exhaust

    Just the catback. It's significantly louder than the stock exhaust and the tone is deeper than stock. I dont have any good videos. One of the local v-club members had one installed, I heard it in person and was sold on the sound. I may do headers or high flow cats later. My neighbors and co...

    Help Kooks Headers vs Corsa CB Exhaust

    I doubt it. I ran catless longtubes on my 6th gen camaro. With the stock mufflers it was loud but raspy. I put borla s-type mufflers and had an exhaust shop replace the x-pipe section with an h-pipe and it gave the deep muscle tone. On my 5bw I'm running the stainless works catback. The tone is...

    A good set of mufflers will clean up the raspiness if you're running catless headers.

    Help Kooks Headers vs Corsa CB Exhaust

    No I didn't get a photo of them. They look similar to stock but the trasition to get them on the motors were a breeze. Maybe if you message stainless works or tapout they can get you a picture of the springs. The set came with new springs and hardware to mount to the mufflers, and a wiring...

    I just installed the Stainless Works catback Exhaust, the sound is loud and deep way louder than stock . They ship with new springs for the valve motors. Did not have to do a valve relearn. Im satisfied with the Exhaust.
