Read the first post and e-mail the company about it. He will offer to do your exhaust.

When I decide on what mufflers I want, I'll go and get a custom stainless mandrel bent exhuast. Waiting for the release of Corsa'* GTP system. Late winter/spring I hear. I just want the tuned mufflers FOR OUR ENGINE!!! Background on Corsa, they only sell high end exhaust for V8'* only and the 3800sc is going to be there first v6 tuned muffler. The whole system is 100% straight thru mufflers and resonators with all mandrel bends for optium performance. They tune there mufflers for a specific engine and don't offer much other than Vets, camaro/firbird, viper,couple trucks and the H2 they also sell high end V8 boat exhuast. I like this company

I had there STS kit, mufflers tuned for all northstars, I had a shop make it fit on my Aurora 4.0 northstar. Can't say enough good things about it. It was very tough sounding at WOT and purried along when crusing. Mine sounded just like this http://www.corsaperf.com/flashcadillac.htm it actually does all the things it says too. Dyno 21HP at wheels on a northstar. The tips are dead sexy too. I miss it. A lot too, can't you tell?

Corsa by the way has signed a deal with GM that they will soon be offering there systems through the GM performance divison. Dealer option soon. There is a CORSA exhaust on the GXP, from the factory. Very nice!

So mandrel bends for me. Only way to go.
