CORSA Performance Delivers a Drone-less C7 Corvette Exhaust System

BEREA, Ohio – Staying true to its legacy of delivering market leading, high-performance exhaust systems for the Corvette, CORSA Performance has released its new exhaust system for the C7 Corvette Stingray. CORSA introduced its patented Reflective Sound Cancellation (RSC) technology for the C5 Corvette and has since become a market leader in Corvette exhaust systems with its free-flowing, patented no-drone technology.
The C7 is an engineering marvel and has numerous state-of-the-art advancements, including an Active Fuel Management System, that made it especially challenging to develop a true no-drone aftermarket exhaust that could flow freely, produce an aggressive exhaust note and operate as intended in both four-cylinder and eight-cylinder mode.

To create an aftermarket exhaust system that integrated perfectly with the new C7 Corvette technologies, CORSA engineers spent over seven months and well over a thousand hours testing a wide range of possible exhaust solutions to deliver the ultimate Corvette exhaust system. The resulting CORSA exhaust system integrates perfectly with the advanced technologies already available on the vehicle and works in conjunction with the C7 stock upstream valves creating a free flowing, high-performance, exhaust system with an aggressive exhaust note and “no-drone,” regardless of driving mode or speed. CORSA’s new C7 exhaust system delivers a refined yet robust sound while providing greater horsepower and torque. “We began our in-depth research and development for the C7 exhaust system nearly a year ago because we knew the high level of technology in the vehicle would present some new challenges,” said Craig R. Kohrs, TMG Performance Products, vice president and general manager. “As a result, we not only engineered a system that enhances the existing technology of the C7, we also developed a number of options for Corvette owners to customize their C7 exhaust system based on personal tastes.”


To further boost the new C7’s performance, CORSA engineered a new optional Double Helixx X-Pipe configuration, which underwent extensive dyno and acoustical testing. The Double Helixx design enhances the C7 system’s acoustics and was proven, on average, to deliver an increase of four to six horsepower and two to four ft-lbs of torque over the stock X-pipe, while further amplifying the exhaust note and helping to cancel out drone. The Double Helixx X-Pipe configuration can be purchased with a new system or added on later (part number 14761).Corsa Double Helixx X-Pipe 14761
CORSA also created an optional interchangeable trapezoidal tip to complement and highlight the C7’s aggressive look and square tail lights. The 304L stainless steel tips are precision welded and hand polished to perfection, creating a unique custom look. CORSA designed the C7 tips to be interchangeable, based on customer feedback, allowing Corvette owners to change out their tips for black, polished or the optional trapezoidal tip design in 10 minutes or less in their own garage. As for sound, CORSA’s specialty, C7 enthusiasts can choose from two sound levels – Sport or Xtreme.
