    Default gased vx exhaust question

    ive been considering getting a cat back exhaust for my calais, its a v6 on gas and was just wondering if the fact that it is gas will make a different sound compared to the petrol counterparts.

    i was just considering getting a cheap lukey one from supercheap that some one was talking about a week or so ago

    thanks for ya help

    I've never heard an exhaust note difference on all the cars I've ever seen or tested.

    Any 2 1/2" system will be OK, but I recommend a Manta (Redback), because I sell them....

    i went to auto one today and they quoted $155 for the lukey system
    its just the centre muffler and rear tail pipe.

    That is a very good price, but the Lukeys are very quiet.
