The Corsa cat back exhaust sounds awesome with the stock manifolds but I'm installing headers and it's going to be too loud. The ZHP exhaust sounds great with headers from the sound clips I've heard but I gave away my ZHP exhaust years ago.

I'd be willing to trade my full exhaust for a ZHP exhaust and $600 OBO. Come down to beautiful Charleston SC and I'll even swap them for you and show you the sites, take a ride on our boat, whatever. :) I'd also be willing to drive a couple of hours to your location as long as you have decent tools and jack stands to do the job...

My Corsa exhaust is in excellent shape and looks new because I rarely drive it in the rain and it's stored during the winter months (when I lived in Jersey)

I have a coupe, will my stock exhaust fit the sedan? I know the corsa exhaust is the same for both...

Why must you live so far?! I would do this in a heartbeat. Any chance I could ship my ZHP exhaust to you via Greyhound, and then you could do the swap and ship the Corsa back to me in the same packaging?

Yes, it will fit. E46 coupe and sedan exhausts are always the same. 325/330 coupes/sedans are interchangeable with each other, as are 323/328.

Yep looks like it will fit. Is your car a manual or auto? There seems to be a few bits and pieces extra for an auto, I don't know if that will make a difference...

Greyhound will take something that heavy and long?

You're right, it's too long. I forgot the OEM exhaust is all one piece. PM sent.

Man, I would have taken this offer if I hadn't been spending on my car so much the past couple of months. :facepalm

Sold!
San and his GF came down over the Fourth of July weekend and swapped with me. Both San and Rivkah are good with wrenches!

Here's Rivka taking off the hangar connected to the transmission

I was very impressed with her skills!

Anyone wondering what the ZHP exhaust sounds like with headers, it's really not much louder at all but it is raspy...

Congrats to the both of you on the sale/purchase of the Corsa TSE3 exhaust! One reason I won't be getting headers for my ZHP.... the sound of this exhaust is :drool :drool :drool

Is there any way to remove the rasp completely?

I think if you replace the first resonators with something like AR20s it will help but overall, the ZHP exhaust with headers it quieter than my Corsa was. The rasps isn't bad at all, I kinda like it.

I was only asking because I hate rasp, so if I was going to look into headers down the line, I'd have to look into a solution that would eliminate the rasp completely.

I imagine the solution would be the same as an M3

Some sort of glass pack/resonator in the first section. I think that's what Trevor did with his M3 not too long ago...

Thanks guys! It sounds better than I thought it would... I was a little worried that it would make the car sound more powerful than it is but that is not the case, it's pretty much perfect... Especially love the pops and burbles...

Thanks again Rob!

I'm glad you're enjoying it. I must admit.... I miss it already. I like the raspy sound and lower RPMs up to about 3500 with the Stock ZHP system but it's quieter than the Corsa (doesn't sound as good) when I hit the mid to upper RPM range

You should post a vid if you can in your project/maintenance thread.
