just a corsa exhaust for now and get rid of the CAGS thing. I want to get used to the car before anything else. Pics will be posted as soon as I get it.

I would recommend the borla over the corsa. The corsa kind of has a motor boat sound on the C5. the borla has more of a deeper sound. JMO.

Enjoy the car.

Borla, Corsa, B&B, and GHL all make top notch systems for the Corvette. If I had to do it over again, I would probably get the Borla Stingers or B&B Bullets because they are deep. The C5 did have a tendency to sound like a motorboat, but with these systems, it seemed less obvious, and if you add an x-pipe it will help with that problem a lot and help mellow it out. Idle on my Z06 with B&B PRTs sounds.... different. Half motorboat, half diesel.

I'm going to be adding LTs and an x-pipe to my Z soon and it should only really scream when I put my foot it in due to the design of the PRT mufflers, and it should have a better tone as well.
