I have been looking at both now all week and cant make up my mind. I want it to sound good, but also worried about the v4 change. Does the corsa sound good driving down the road, how loud is it compaired to the magnaflow? I just don't want to get the magnaflow just to find out that the v4 sounds weird so then i have to buy the corsa. I'm worried that the corsa is too quiet??

 

If the price was the same....which exhaust would you get. I am looking at the dual under bumber kits...

 

Does anyone have the corsa dual that has a sound clip on here?

 

Its for a 2007 NBS EC SB 5.3 w/afm

I had a MagnaFlow on a previous year Sierra with a 5.3. It sounded nice. But it was too loud when driving on the highway. When I bought my '07 Sierra, I knew the 4-cylinder mode was going to be an issue when it came to exhaust. So I researched the subject. I ended up getting a Corsa Sport. Could not be happier. The Corsa system is aggressive on acelleration, but quiet at cruise. When I had a MagnaFlow on my '99, it was just loud all the time. The other major difference between the two is quality. The MagnaFlow is very good when it comes to quality. The Corsa system is awesome when it comes to quality. Better to spend big bucks and get what you want, than to spend any bucks and be disappointed.

What does it sound like when it goes into v4? Its hard to go by the sound clips, because the recording are so crappy on most, i think i should just go with the corsa, they claim to be the best for the v4 mode.....I have a diablo on the way to if i need to shut off the AFM system if have to. Do you guys still have your v4 active? what mpg are u getting

I don't even notice it in V4 mode,unless I'm listening for it,Its hardly noticable.

Yes,I have the V4 mode active,I have no reason to want it disabled,I like the AFM (I have no idea why guys want it disabled)

I can't really answer the mileage part,I only had a few hundred miles on the truck when I installed my system.However on both my '99 and '04 trucks I saw no mileage increase after I installed them.

How much louder is the Corsa exhaust? Is the touring model much louder that the 900 stock exhaust?

Good choice, you'll love it! I've had both. There really is no comparison - Corsa all the way. It's loud when you get on the throttle, and quiet when you're not.

 

The Corsa Sport is actually considerably louder than the Magnaflow setup I had before. But I wasn't looking for a louder exhaust (that's just a nice bonus), I just didn't like the drone. Which the Corsa took care of.

      Notes 7/18/2026   3,400 miles on this batch of Mobil 1 Euro 5W40 since the GDI pump replacement. Alcohol runs very clean when ring seal is tight and the sump isn't getting hosed with fuel. Checked oil level at fill up today as is my practice and grabbed a white Kleenex to look at the color. What color?  I was going to change it but.....

      Interesting, I suspect I would have fueled up in Lee Vining as the day prior I would have filled up either in Laughlin or near there and maybe again before I entered Death Valley and once out the other side late that evening as I kept on driving into the night up near Lee Vining. Next morning I most likely fueled up in LV before heading over Tioga Pass into ( as I refer to it as "Yose .... Mite" 😁 ). And again that was 19 years ago but the price then must not have jumped out at me like the 5 bill a gallon theme of nutty cult hippy country Big Sir or head so far up their rear Aspen. I'd be curious to know where the highest prices are in the lower 48, I probably would not be far off to guess somewhere in Cali forn ie. Coldfoot and Prudhoe bay may have those prices beat but that is a whole other world up there and when prices are more normal elsewhere that is about what they can be up there I believe in no mans land. Anyway interesting that the 395 corridor is hosing people and the thing is, its tourist season and its not like there are a lot of competition options when driving up that highway from what I could see. Yup, big ole Boaterhomes and various other RV's ahead and behind me at the Yosemite entrance gate and they have to get their fuel somewhere.

      Those can be high, as well as the big California cities. The ones that will pop your eyes out are the 395 corridor on the Eastern side of the Sierra Nevadas. Lee Vining, $7.19 for regular and $8.89 for diesel is what the Google said right now.

      Correct.  2019-2021 model years are serviced by a different p/n.  19420611.  Recall 2021s use 19420611.   The recall engines 2022-2024 model years are serviced with 12740076.     The difference between 19420611 and 12740076 is GM changed injector size for 2022.  The injectors are smaller on 12740076 with smaller injector bores in the cylinder heads to match the smaller injectors.  So you can't install a 19420611 in a 2022-2024, and you can't install a 12740076 in a 2019-2021.     Both engines are the replacement engine p/ns that are in the L87 recall.  So both of these are the updated engines.     Here's a version of the L87 recall with the p/ns for all the parts needed.    RCRIT-25V274-7075.pdf   Note it shows 19420611 and 12740076 with an asterisk to a footnote "Use the VIN and the GM Electronic Parts Catalog (EPC) to determine which part to order if two or more part numbers are listed for the same part, as it may vary by vehicle options."
