OTL GRC Street Series Catback Exhaust System - 2023+ Toyota GR Corolla

from $1,699.95

The OTL Performance Street Series cat-back exhaust for the Toyota GR Corolla is engineered to deliver a balanced combination of improved exhaust flow, adjustable sound control, and premium fabrication quality tailored specifically to the G16E-GTS platform.

Unlike traditional fixed-volume exhaust systems, the OTL Street Series introduces an electronically controlled exhaust valve that allows drivers to adjust sound and character on demand. Whether you want a refined daily-driving tone or a more aggressive performance sound, this system adapts to your driving style with the press of a button.

Built from high-quality stainless steel and fabricated in-house, the Street Series catback is designed to improve exhaust efficiency while maintaining OEM-level fitment and long-term durability.

What Makes the OTL Street Series Catback Different

Most aftermarket cat-back exhaust systems offer a single sound profile. The OTL Street Series takes a different approach by combining performance-focused exhaust flow with active sound control.

Key advantages include:

  • Adjustable exhaust volume using an electronic valve controller

  • Improved exhaust flow compared to the factory system

  • Enhanced turbo response and throttle feel

  • Multiple exhaust tip options to match different build styles

  • OEM-style fitment with premium fabrication

The system is designed to enhance the GR Corolla’s unique three-cylinder turbo sound while giving drivers the flexibility to tailor volume and tone.

Active Exhaust Valve System

A defining feature of the OTL Street Series catback is its integrated exhaust valve and controller.

The included controller allows four modes of operation:

  • Fully open valve for maximum sound and flow

  • Fully closed valve for a quieter driving experience

  • Incremental opening in adjustable steps

  • Incremental closing in adjustable steps

This allows the exhaust to transition from subdued to aggressive depending on driving conditions and personal preference.

To maintain compatibility with the factory exhaust valve system and avoid error codes, the kit includes a dedicated OEM valve bracket engineered specifically for the GR Corolla.

Construction and Design

The OTL Street Series catback is built with a focus on durability, performance, and aesthetics.

Key construction features:

  • 304 stainless steel exhaust tubing

  • Precision TIG-welded joints

  • High-quality mandrel-bent piping

  • Direct bolt-on installation using factory mounting points

  • Included exhaust hangers and hardware

  • In-house fabrication by Off The Line Performance

The system is engineered to integrate seamlessly with both the factory downpipe and aftermarket exhaust components.

Exhaust Tip Options

To match different build styles, the OTL Street Series catback is available with multiple tip finishes:

  • Polished stainless steel

  • Burnt stainless steel

  • Liquid Smoke finish

These options allow owners to tailor the visual appearance of the exhaust to their overall vehicle aesthetic.

Performance Characteristics

While a cat-back exhaust alone does not drastically increase horsepower, it plays an important role in improving overall exhaust flow and driving experience.

Expected benefits include:

  • Reduced exhaust restriction compared to stock

  • Improved turbo responsiveness

  • More engaging exhaust sound

  • Increased performance potential when combined with supporting modifications

Real-world feedback from GR Corolla owners highlights the ability to achieve both quiet and aggressive sound profiles depending on valve position, with minimal drone during normal driving.

Fitment

  • Toyota GR Corolla (2023+)

  • Engine: 1.6L Turbo G16E-GTS

  • AWD drivetrain

Designed as a direct bolt-on upgrade with OEM-style fitment.

How This Catback Fits Into a GR Corolla Exhaust Build

The OTL Street Series catback works well in a variety of setups:

  • Stock downpipe + OTL catback

  • Aftermarket downpipe + OTL catback

  • Full turbo-back exhaust systems

It can be installed on its own or combined with other exhaust upgrades to create a balanced performance system.
