The Sport is less aggressive when compared to the db series. The db is for those who prefer a deep rumbling growl during normal driving. The Sport characteristic is loud during acceleration but somewhat quite otherwise.

I'm not sure the stainless steel in the DB is as high a grade as the regular Corsa systems. The Corsa sport has a lifetime warranty while the DB series has a limited 10 year warranty. The DB series is their economy system.

 

I believe I read some where the DB series was 409 stainless. They do say the tip is 304 stainless on Corsa's web site but they don't say what grade the muffler and pipes are. They just say stainless steel. The Corsa touring and sport systems are 100% 304 stainless steel.

You are right I contacted Corsa and talked to them for awhile...

The two main differences is that the piping on the db series is 409 stainless while the muffler and tip are 304 stainless with different tip

 

Can you privide any information about the differences of the two stainless steels

304 stainless is better than 409 in that it will usually resist even surface rust whereas 409 tends to surface rust and will not look nearly as nice as even an aluminized exhaust after a little while, but neither will have rust through problems.

I spoke to the Rep today about the differences. He told me they ade the db line to be more competitive in the market with Magnaflow , flowmaster, Etc... With that being said the muffler is the same in both groups but in the higher end one. the stainless is much higher grade with a lifetime warranty. Also the clamps are better and the tips are better as well.

But your looking at the db series at about $525 and the Corsa series at about $950

In my opinion... I may just wait and save the extra cash and get the better one. the stainless tubing wich is visible will look great and I never have to worry about an exaust system again

So from what the rep told you the mufflers are an identical design? So soundwise there "shouldn't" be any difference.

      I wasn’t commenting on your post. Certainly wasn’t arguing. I was making an observation on my long term experience with supposedly proper length of driving for proper heat cycles. Works for me. Although I have seen water or vapor come out of exhaust when vehicles weren’t run very long and shut off. It’s very humid in the morning. Then hot and humid.

      Not what I said but I can work with it anyway. Complete combustion produces CO2 and H20. When it's cold enough you can 'see' it as water vapor but it is always there and more so the better the tune up. It's physics, not an argument. In a cold motor when the cylinder jacket is below the condensation temperature the water goes to the pan and not the PCV system. Heating the oil moves it from liquid to vapor where it is removed by the PCV system. When and how much depends on temperatures. Of the air, the water and so on. It has little to with the humidity. Water is a combustion product.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I can only guess as well that something was clicked on that brought you to the half ton choices by accident. By all means try again and chose the 3500 and sort out that its the cab and box configuration you want and choose four wheel drive ( rather obvious to have a transfer case ) and to make sure the dually isn't chosen. I find or at least did a couple of years ago when I was sifting through the options that it would sometimes jump ahead after choosing the series of truck and in this case 3500 and skip some of the other initial configuration choices and have to watch the heading bar and sometimes back up by choosing the first in the series of option break downs. I think sometimes the computer will remember items that were last chosen and skip over the first part. Anyway go through it all and depending on the trim level chosen and I think the LT is one that may fall into that where the option of having the 4 high auto transfer case can be chosen, where as a High Country doesn't show that option as it just comes with the fancier ( not necessarily better though in terms of potential problems ) transfer case but for sure both transfer case choices are equipped with high and low range in the HD truck segment. Like Newdude said who works at a dealership, its the half tons that are the ones that will come with the single speed unless certain options or trim levels are chosen that add the two speed transfer case but as your looking at an HD, you don't have to worry about that hot mess.    One item that at least didn't show up and not sure if it does yet or not in the HD options on the manufactures pubic website is the upfitter in cab switch option if one is desiring that. Unfortunately its not wired in at the factory but the panel with the switches is on the dash but the wiring harness to be installed gets tossed under the rear seat to be installed by whomever after the fact to complete the installation.

      Yesterday we brought home a 6yr  old Havanese dog from a nearby SPCA.  We've had her for 24 hours and we are delighted with how well she is adjusting to her new home.  It  was a huge decision to adopt a dog at this stage in our lives but we believe we made the right choice!   it was reported that her first 6 years were ones of neglect.  I think she's already realizing her life is going to get a whole lot better...  so is ours!
