Redback or lukey 2.5'' catback?

[Scheme]

It's to go on a VN V6 Commodore Wagon, with no other modifications to the engine.
No real visual difference really, between the two, except the colour.

Lukey Cat Back Exhaust Commodore VN VP VR Ute Wag 6 Cyl | eBay

OR

REDBACK 2.5" SPORTS EXHAUST SUIT VN VP VR VS COMMODORE (eBay item 170528951375 end time 03-Jul-11 19:00:41 AEST) : Cars, Bikes, Boats


Which is better for my car, I want it to sound a little more gutsy but preferably no drone. On your VN VP, what do you prefer!?!?! Pro's/Cons?

Lukey FTW.......that is all

[Scheme]

Lukey I reckon too myself after doing a bit more research!

I got a redback for my vg ute (same for your wagon) it did for fit quite right. hit the mounting point for the panhard rod mount off the body. SO adjusting it not to hit puts the tail pipe out of whack.
Not sure if I got a bad one, or its just the overall quality of redback.

ive heard good and bad stuff about both, but having first hand experience with lukey id recommend them

They are both cheap off the shelf exhausts, Have no expectations an you will do well.

if you dont want the drone then put 2 mufflers on it..

I didnt know a 6 couldnt drone but yes i told him that in the last thread.

[GEN3RATD]

cant you just run a hot dog and a rear muffler?

[mr calais 5.0]

I have found over the years that at hwy speeds you will get the drone but just around the streets at 50/60 you wont hear it too much but at higher speeds you will and i like the look of a muffler at the rear as well..

I really dont know why they sell them with the muffler in the middle it should be in the back but i think your ment to run the hotdogs after the muffler i could be wrong tho.

cheers for all the useful info and tips, Lukey I reckon I'll go with and I'm certain I'll be more than pleased as far as bang for my buck goes!

Are they a glass packed muffler or straight through mufflers? The last sports pipe i had on my v6 vn berlina was 2 mufflers and they rear was a glass packed and the front was straight through, nice sound and no drone..

redback, straight thru muffler and hot dog with 3 inch straight tip.
