| 2003 Monte Carlo SS |

Hey guys, a couple quick questions...
1) What is the difference between a Corsa exhaust and Borla Exhaust. Is the exhaust for a supercharged engine the same as a non - this is a CAT back system.
2) Does anyone have any tips, steps in what needs to be completed when doing the motor swap - stock 3800 to a supercharged.
Thanks.. |

the exhaust should be the same now for the l67 swap you have a few choices 1 whole motor ,pcm wiring harness(may not need this) or you look at zzperformance.com they have a conversion kit to put a sc on your car. |

I have a Borla cat-back and like it. I don't think I've ever the Corsa in action though. Either way, they're both too **** expensive. But I still like it :icon_pirat: |

I would say with your setup why not just go to a shop and have a system installed? Thats the only way I have done it and my exhaust is 7 years old and still great. |

as far as the motor swap goes check out www.motorswap.org they have all the info you should need. if they don't have the info ask and Brian Teel will definately help you out. I did a swap on my 2001 Grand Prix GT but that's a little different from your car. mine was pretty straight forward I'm not sure how straight forward yours would be. |

This website should help you decide on you exhaust
http://www.rmcgp.com/exhaust/#Borla
There's a bunch on there. 1 thing I don't like about my Borla is the drone at certain RPM's. It was kind of annoying at first, but I'm used to it now. |
