    First off. welcome. Second, you can't get any information from Holden unless you pay for it.
    The wagon is a bit longer than a sedan so you will probably need to modify it a bit.

    I thought I was wrong once but I was mistaken.

    as said mate the wagon exhaust is a bit longer than the sedan one, a mate has tried this and he had to modify it to fit.

    Thanks fella's, any idea how much mods ? I have a supercharged V6 VX in need of exhaust replacement/repair. I can get (for virtually nothing) a HSV 5.0 ltr system, from cat back. If I can fit the 5.0 ltr system, I'll be saving around $600. Any info on what mods need to be done to fit it would be greatly appreciated.

    Default Specs

    The wagon is 50mm longer, overall, than the sedan and the wheelbase on the wagon is 150mm longer than the sedan. So, in theory, all I should have to do is remove 150mm of pipe from the centre section of it, rejoin & relocate the hangers......????

    I found out......the hard way ! They don't fit, the mufflers are too long. If I cut 100 mm out of the pipe before the muffler, it will fit, but the mufflers are 70 mm longer than the sedan ones and they don't fit into the space provided.

    Anyone looking for a new cond HSV VT/VX V8/V6 supercharged stainless exhaust system ?????
