Not sure what "seeking for a great tune and great performance" has to do with a cat-back exhaust. Any performance gain from a cat-back exhaust or muffler swap is very small, maybe 5 HP. 90% of doing an aftermarket exhaust (from the cat back or muffler swap) is merely for noise. To gain actual performance, headers will be needed as well.

I have the Borla S-Type and love it. Noticeable difference in sound and performance. My 6.2l just breaths better.

Seems in my area, the guys with a "nice" Chevy tend to run Corsa, they sound good, but my interest in GM is so low, I don't even remember what engine other than a V8.
The Borla I can talk about. I've had two STypes, one on my '12 5.0, and now the one on my '17 3.5.
The new Borla SType appears to be a different muffler than the older version, as well as the resonator, but on a V8 it sounds great, and slightly louder. The longer you run it, and it burns in, it just gets better. ZERO drone, just a slight gurgle at expressway speeds, and once it burns in, you'll be able to just hear it when backing off.
It's all 304 stainless, won't disintegrate in your lifetime. Buy it once, and forget about it.
100% quality, if I live long enough, I'll have another Borla on the next truck.
You can just about forget about actually talking to someone from Borla, at least in my case. Best bet is to buy third party, in case there is a problem, best prices I've gotten were from Stage3.
Have no connection with them, just a fan of their stuff.
