I have had Flowmaster and Corsa on my 95. While I loved the throaty Flowmaster rumble, the resonance was a killer from 1200 - 2100 rpm. Switched to Corsa, best money I ever spent. No resonance, easy to install, looks and sounds great. Since "sound" is in the ear of the beholder, not putting down any brand, just expressing an opinion.
Anybody else have good and bad comparisons? Recomendations?

I have Magnaflows and like the sound....TPIS headers into one 4" straight pipe, then out 2.5 into mufflers....
Only thing I dont like....the round tips...I like the square tips that the car came with, just not the stock exhaust system.
YMMV

Vette(s): 1975 metallic blue coupe with t-tops,L48, t/t steering, black leather interior. 1990 L98, white/red leather interior, auto,a/c
my 90 is basically a stock L98. when i got it wife complained it was too loud. had to replace the whole system and bought it from 2 different places on ebay. cost me less than half of what i would have paid in store. front y up to and including a high flow catalytic converter from one place and rear y and low back pressure mufflers from another. figured it would be quieter but it wasn't. i along with others like the sound from it and wife still says it's too loud. unfortunately i can't remember the names that they were.

When I got my 88 two years ago it needed a new cat-back system because it was rusted out. (original). I bought a FlowMaster Series 50 cat-back and it is just a little deeper sounding from stock. Conversation is easy, stereo sounds great. I don't hear any drone, just the sound of a healthy l98.

I am running LPE Signature Headers with high performace cats and Borla Mufflers. It has a nice rumble to it and sounds great when you punch it.

I have the stock system on my 1995. It is a little to quiet. I think the stock system was also on my 1990, I liked the sound better on my older car that I traded.

I installed a Corsa Pulse exhaust several years ago in my '91 ZR1 and really like it. I was initially looking for a sound that was reminiscent of the 60's and 70's sound, similar to my '72. I was first looking for a system that was a true dual exhaust, without any crossover. But couldn't find one, so I bought a FlowMaster catback system because of their claim, and others, of the excellent free flow. When it arrived, I noticed that the pipes just after the cats joined into one. I already knew this but as I said earlier, I couldn't find anything true dual. Anyway, before I installed them (some time had passed) I was browsing a couple of parts catalogs and came across the Corsa's. To me it appeared as close to true duals as any others. So I bought them and installed them instead. Too much time had passed for me to return the FlowMaster. It was never installed and is even in the boxes that they were delivered in. If anyone out there is interested in them, let me know. I have pics also.
