Exhaust is something we haven't been getting into but I have Pacemaker pipes and HM system on my S/C V6 and very happy with it.

Cheers.

If you guys don't do exhausts, mind if I pipe in? (pardon the pun).

The system that I recommend is 2 1/4" twin into two mufflers, then into a single 3" with a resonator. It comes out as twin 2 1/4" from the rear resonator. Doesn't really matter which extractors you do, I'd probably go Hurricanes for best value. You will also have to fit aftermarket cats with the extractors as the originals are an odd shape and have ground clearance issues once moved. The whole box and dice is $1600. You get extractors, cats, and the system. It is all bolt on and retains all 4 O2 sensors. (But I think if yours is the 175 then it only has 2 O2 sensors.)

doing a bit of ground work before i put a new system on my vy ss. its stok at moment-2".figure the donk has a lot more to give so am looking into extractors bak system-2.5" and maybe air induction. have plenty of different ideas like exiting out both sides,no rear muffler, rear muffler and no in line mufflers.also not real sure how much is in pipe diam.herd 3" too big.
have been told alot of conflicting things which has got me scratching my head.
would be good to hear any advice,
thanks

I can supply the system, but I wouldn't know where you can have it fitted. Call a few exhaust shops and see what they have to say. If you want to tackle it yourself, it's not that difficult if you have a bit of mechanical aptitude.
