Just got my initial custom tune sent from a very well known HEMI tuner. Have to load it, do some data logging, send it back then get a revision to get optimal results. Can't wait to see what this tune does for the butt dyno.

Well it's confirmed, my peel out was 15ft longer with the tune than before it. Money well spent!

If only the Corsa was more affordable for the F150 It's at least double nearly all the other options for the 2.7

Brapppp bros
It's the same with Chargers. It's by far the most expensive catback I've ever bought. I got a pretty good deal on it but it still made my butt pucker ordering it.

Hard part is trying to find good audio of them on the 2.7.

That's actually cheaper than prices for Charger catbacks. My Flowmaster retails for around $800. I got lucky and found one practically brand new on Craigslist for $300. The Corsa came out just shy of $1300 shipped. It's still not registering to me just how crazy that is, but I saved $600-$1000 by installing my headers myself so that's helping me to vindicate the purchase price. And Santa.

I've got Santa & my January birthday coming up so I can score some goodies for the F.

^ Not doubting, just really want to try to hear a few options in person before deciding.
No idea how the 2.7 is going to sound, the few decent youtube videos I've found don't sound bad. If you're not listening, you wouldn't think it's a truck.

Can't those guys really be blamed for most of the world's problems?
One 1 year old does not count. 2 kids + only brah. Keep reproducing then come back and you shall be admitted.
Good idea. Being a smaller engine it might have a completely different sound than the 3.5.

I installed the Corsa Xtreme last week. I'm having a lot of buyers remorse, go figure since that's my typical thing now-a-days. It's a completely different sound than the Flowmaster Force II, more of a raspy straight pipe tone, which I was expecting, but what I wasn't expecting was for it to still have drone since it's advertised as a completely drone free system. It's weird because it's not as droney (is that a word?) at lower RPMs and speeds, but on the highway 70mph and on up it drones just as much as the Flowmaster did, and worse it's a buzzier drone than the lower bass drone of the Flows. It's also quite a bit louder than the Flows when going WOT, which is what I wanted, but it's almost like an on/off switch. It's quieter idle on up to about 30% throttle, but then after that it's definitely louder than the Flows which were more consistent in sound levels, if that makes sense.
Performance-wise I can't tell any difference whatsoever even though it's a straight through exhaust vs Flowmaster which has chambered mufflers. Same diameter piping for both systems.
I already had the fight or flight moment trying to ask if I could return it and the customer service person told me once it's installed it's not returnable. So I listed it for sale lol. Well I decided I was jumping the gun and took down my ads and decided to give it a chance for a while letting it break in and then decide what I want to do. It's a huge loss of money if I just get rid of it after a week. I'll see if I can post a video of it in a sec. It's got some breaking in to do of course so this first cold start video may not be how it sounds in a month or so but it'll give you an idea of the difference between the two systems. Please give me your guys opinions of the different sounds.

Brother...
if I shared all my crazy thoughts, you'd realize that we were probably separated at birth...
You already spent the money...let it burn in and develop some coating of carbon buildup to tone itself down.
Is there a place up front that would allow you to put in a couple of vibrant resonators? I've read they are the drone killers.
Corsa looks so good!

Click on the photos I just posted to listen to the sounds clips. The Corsa definitely sounds meaner, but maybe less refined? Never thought I'd say Flowmasters sound refined though ha ha.
I'm not sure if they make bigger resonators or not. We'll see if they contact me and if so what they say. For the price I paid I'd hope there'd be some sort of tech support.
