    Default ls1 exhaust

    Hi guys, I'm looking into a new exhaust for my VT SS. Currently have a 2.5" twin, with standard cats, middle and rear mufflers, it's okay but I'm after that consistant note when you accelerate, plus a little more volume couldn't hurt.


    Thinking of going a twin 3" with some high flow cats, maybe 100cpsi, i'm not sure yet. I would appreciate some opinions, tell me what system you're running, videos would be awesome.

    heres mine



    I have a fair bit of engine work, visit my page for details.

    I like the idea of removing the resi as a first step, thanks for confirming that for me dijm8.

    yeah john ive got some pacies on there, definately looking at getting some high flow cats at some stage, so much i want to do, so little money.

    xforxe do a good twin 3 but only go for a twin 3 if your definetly going over 300rwkw other wise you will lose heaps of low end torque.but get cats and get the resi off or go for a sureflo single 3.5 they sound good

    took out the rear resi today, the car has much more volume and conistancy to the note now, plus I've noticed a slight gain in low end power, and less slugishness/hopping at low speeds in second gear, which is awesome.

    definately be looking into a twin 3" with some high flow cats in the near future, not_an_abba_fan has quoted me a really good price for this system.

    I'll post up a clip of my exhaust without the rear resi tomorrow

    thanks for input guys
