    Default exhaust question

    cant find anything but i just wanna know will a v8, 5.0l or gen 3 exhaust from cat back bolt up to a v6?
    i know the vn-vs will despite the manufacturers claiming differently.
    thinking about getting an exhaust for the vt and figured why not just get a twin catback v8, sounds stockish with better flow

    What has been done to your 5 litre? For a stocko or bolt on 5 litre a single 2.5" sports zorst with a propper functioning cat is perfect. Even the stock cast manifolds are marginally faster down the 8th mile although same or marginally slower down the 1/4.

    cant see why it wouldnt, but just becuase its bigger doesnt mean its better, twin 2.5 is over kill for the 6 banger and will sound as good as an excel with a cannon

    single 2.5 or twin 2.25

    Short answer no. The V8 system is not a direct fit for the V6 unless the V6 is factory L67. VT-VY that is. It will however, bolt up to the VZ V6.

    thanks dude, that is all i needed to know, xforce claim their exhaust for the v6 fits v8 aswell, i found a stainless system for free some where and thought well, i was going to keep it sounding stock but free is free and if it sounds like a wet fart in a bucket then well it was free and i can just oem it without the hustle of having to fight for a refund
