twin exhast for v6 help

[jonboy]

hi im gona be doin a nu exhaust for my v6 and i need opinions.
i want twin pipes cause i want it to sound as beasty as pos. heres wot iv been dreamin up.
extractors into twin 2 inch, no cats as its nz spec, two long coby resonaters (one each side) merging into 1 single 2 and half inch pipe just before the diff,out the back im not sure wat type of rear muffler to have fitted? defnaty strat through tho.
i was thinkin it would be cool to have some type of dump pipe straight after the diff exiting to the side a bit with a removable cap (old hotrod style) 4 the drags.
wat i need to no is is, is 2 inch the best size for the first section? and 2 and half best for the rear part? i would like it to flo the best it can.
wher should balance pipes(1 or 2) be fitted? or should i go with a x pipe?
all opinions would b great as if been searching the net for agis and i dont no if this has been done before on a na v6

from the extractors... 2 1/4" then from the resonators 2 1/2"


This will not only sound good but would be optimal for performance

Just put a Sports V8 system on it.........Off the shelf, works a treat...Believe me!!

is the sport v8 system a twin pipe all the way or just to the diff? how much do these go for?

You can get either, Mine is Twin all then way, with an X Pipe just after the Cat's...Sounds Grouse, and goes very well!!
About $450 cat Back last time I checked....

if you want twin exhaust, whya re you merging it, why not just keep it twin 2" all the way through, have a decent straight through muffler in each pipe and a cat. and youll have a decent note.

Won't go on a VN though, it's a live axle. It will be difficult to put a twin system all the way through on a live axle car. It can be done but it's not straight forward.

What you originally wanted is fine, twin 2" off extractors, but I would run them side by side down the same side and into a twin in single out straight through muffler, then 2 1/2" out the back.

cheers for evyones input, yea the reason i was planin for single out the rear was cause there ant much room between diff an body on the solid axle vns.
il b lookin into these v8 of the shelf sistems i think an way up the cost o gettin one made up (my dads a mean welder so il just have to buy pipes an mufflers)
will post pix wen its all done
