im probably going to offened alot of people here, everyone who has spent money on there exhaust system probably think it sounds great, but sorry guys all the ones ive herd sound like a cat pulled through a cheese grater and have that realy tinny screeky tone about them. So my question is has anyone out there made a good sounding exhaust system for a V6 that had a deep tone to it and a quiet burble

just running the standard calais twin system, had a listen on youtube but nothing realy exited me there, we have decided we might experiment with putting some copper pipe in mid section or aluminium

Honestly mine sounds pretty good, and I know the shitty sound you are talking about from most sixes though.

Id take a video or sound clip but thats not a good way to test sounds as it wont be the same in person.

hi 2DIE yeah but it would be a good indication of whats out there would be greatly appreciated, i know online wont be as good ... but might give me some more ideas .. its ironic ive got a crack in one of my cats and it sounds half decent as it gives it a lumpy note.. this crack its whats made me think the system needs replacing so im looking at options

Ive got a redback 2.5" with a hotdog in the rear, sounds tough ass, very deep. A little drony accelerating, but once at speed, its inaudible

i have a random 2.5 inch cat back on my vs, yes its not a vt but i have the note you want. its quiet and doesnt sound all raspy. deep sound and zero drone.

i think the key is one muffler, but a big muffler.

mate on a 6 you can achieve a low grumble note that you want but not have a raspry sound when you plant, you need the other 2 cylinders.

Mine sounds nice in my opinion, little raspry sounding when you plant it, but if i ont it is constantly grumbling sound when i drive around. End of the day liek i said, v8 is needed.
