To loop delete or not to loop delete, that is the question.
Now I decided to go with the Corsa purely for the sound and diameter. Only one with 2.75 inch piping. Their sport muffler has a great sound to it.
The Y pipe is going in for driveshaft clearance. 7 inches of lift in the front, even with an Adams driveshaft I still hit the factory Y pipe.
I bought 2 other Ys and wasn’t impressed with the quality. So I bought the Borla and was trying to decide wether or not to use the delete based on all the reports of lost power. Ended up figuring out that the delete has to be used with their Y. Was just wondering if finally anyone had in fact put one on a dyno since it gets brought up so many times in so many places

It's not for emissions or cafe (corporate avg fuel economy) regulations -- And the factory spent money on it, so it probably has enough value to justify the cost. I'd bet that the effect on power is primarily at top end of the rpm / power range. Surprising that there isn't a with/without dyno run somewhere.


It’s been a while since I’ve learned about why the loop is there so take my knowledge with a grain of salt. I believe the loop is there to keep the length of pipe the same for both driver and passenger sides. This keeps the back pressure and temps consistent on both sides of the engine.
I deleted mine a while ago for a cat back exhaust setup and haven’t seen any ill effects. I will say that I am getting an occasional (and very temporary) cylinder 4 misfire code, I don’t think it’s related though. I only mention this because I cannot 100% rule it out as a potential effect.
