    Default Is this exhaust right? V6

    My car is a VX series 2 V6 Sedan with IRS.
    For a redback cat-back system with a straight through tail pipe i was quoted $560 fitted.. from what i hear on this forum i can get something much cheaper

    Does the Exhaust shape have to be life this? twin http://www.bestmufflers.com/bshop/im..._vz_76_300.jpg

    or can it be done like this for my VX? single

    It should be the bottom one.

    If you wanted to fit it yourself which is pretty straight forward, I can do you a system shipped for under $300.

    i don't think his on yellowpages, but, i can point out where he is. Probably would have helped if i got the suburb right too, but it is pretty much Montmorency
