personaly i would save the xtra and get one made for a corsa b
alot of the universal ones may need you cutting and bending pipes, not to mention might not actualy fit
(due to the inpipe being too small or large to connect to ur new backbox)

if you know what your doing then go for the universal one, if ur after a plug n play job get a specific corsa one

dont forget if u do decide to go for a universal one make sure its connected up properly, a blowing exhuast is an MOT faliure, weather its blowing from a join or not.

better off saving up and gettin a custom job or a direct fit piece. Universal fit means it will need work to fit lol, hanging brackets need to be welded on, pipeneeds to be bent/shaped to fit to the original system, etc etc

Yeah, unless you do know what your doing with it id suggest go for one made for a corsa. I had to make this decision when i fitted mine on my old corsa but im glad i waited that little bit longer for a custom fit one, yes its that extra cost but you know that its going to be a perfect fit :)
