Since I have corsa on both my srt8's, one I had over year I wanted to share my personal opinion of the two.
1. Corsa has a high pitch wine like a indy car. SLP has a very muscle car sound like a big block from the 70's.
2. WOT corsa is louder by far. I have no clue on how they make it so loud with mufflers and resinators. In every other aspect SLP is louder by far.
3. Corsa has zero drone and after driving around in a car with the slp it further comfirms this. SLP II has drone in so many rpm ranges that it will be easier to tell you where there is no drone. So cruising at 55mph in 'D' their is absolutely no drone.
4. The fit and finish of both are top notch. I wasn't expecting slp to be as good as it was. We all know corsa is at the top when it comes to this category.
Conclusion - After driving around my girlfriends car for a few day (we swap cars often) the drone it less annoying. When you're at part throttle with slp in manuel it just sounds plain wicked. When you're slowing down and downshift my gosh does it sound mean. I will not put slp on my car but to drive it around every once it a while is good enough for me. I couldn't live with this day in and day out. But Corsa has the best of both worlds. It's has a slight rumble at idle and cruise but during WOT it sounds like the gates of hell are opening. This more suits me than the slp.

I have a question. In your opinion, does the difference in sound and quality warrant the 500-600 dollar difference in price? I too am shopping for an exhaust and have been pretty impressed with the SLP sound clips that I have heard.
I have seen SLP Loudmouths II start for around 700 while the Corsa's that I have seen are flirting with 1300 dollars!
Everyone on here won't stop talking about the quality of the Corsa and Borla, so even a cheapskate like me has to take notice of such a large public display of admiration. However, i'll be danged if i'm going to spend 1300 dollars + tax+ shipping + installation for 15whp!! It better sound nothing short of pure sex!
