is it n/a or turbo im guessing its n/a... how big in diameter... i got myn for $100 off a wrecked vl... 2 1/2 with extractors & 3 inch tip... thought that was pretty good![]()
yeah that was pretty good.
Mine was about $1100 (but its V8) stainless extracs 3 inch y piece to 2.5 through 'special' cat and decent muffler. Last foot or so is stainless for looks.
I got quoted for a redback catback 2&1/2 $330 and they were gonna let me hear a few different mufflers to get the right note. For a good set of extractors your gonna be lookin at $350-$450 brand new. I got mine off ebay for $100 they are almost new pacemakers with the special coatings and sh1t. I was rapt
i had a vl wagon na 6, and i payed $150 it had extractors, then striaght through to a 6" dump pipe tip, the thing flew, and sounded hot too, dont know how legal it was, no cats no mufflers, but never got hassled by cops, even went through rego no dramas.
6" DUMP PIPE!!! HOLY GEEZ
I'm forking out 950 for my 3" turbo back system, hiflow and cat and tip.
I've got extractors if you want them 50 dollars + Post. I really need to get pictures up as everyone keeps asking me.
As for the rest, the cost of the muffler and the cat plus 100 bucks??
my mate at carline is doing a 2.5" cat back stainles steal normal bent (not mandrel) with 1 resonator for $250 and another $250 for the highflow cat (doing the cat when i do my headers
my mate got a full system just like the one im getting from u pull it.... he payed $16
lucky bastard
get a 2.5" straight through with front muffler, it sounds really good.
my web sitestuff on the XF throttle body conversion, calais interior and lots of other junk!
hmmmm.. depends on what kind of sound u want really?
I wonder what those scales on the top right side of my posts do...
i dont no i just wants some thing louder than my car
not looking for any thing inparticular except to get a few looks when i drive down the main street.

yeah its sounds effing nice, even better with a new cam,iam just talking crap sorry
there nice and cheap aswell !
My exhaust for my VK set me back $1600 all up
Pacemaker 1 3/4 primary headers into 2 1/4" collectors
Twin 2 1/4" pipes into 2 high flow cats joining into a 3" system
1 muffler and a large hotdog and a polished stainless tailpipe.
All mandrel bent and painted in heat proof paint.
The pipe work is all flanged so I and pull off sections to either paint or to work on the car.
Looks tops and sounds great.
