Thinking about getting a new exhaust for my VT V6. I don't really know what I should get but Im looking for power and not too much noise. Im also going to get the FIT 1.9 rockers,CAI and custom chip.
I've been told that a Redback Cat Back 2.5" system with rear resinator and Pacemaker extractors aren't bad. What do you guys think? Would the standard CAT and middle pipes be hurting performance?
If you can post what you have, how much it cost and if your in Sydney where you got it from I would appreciate it alot.
Thanks, Daniel
Hi Daniel,
Im actually getting exact same things on my VT in 2 days, 2.5 inch catback, memcal and CAI with one of them custome foam air filters.
I got a few quotes on the exhaust, and got the best price for $340 fitted, and its more for a twin pipe (Penrith Muffler Man)
Memcal's are on ebay for 150
CAI, as well around 200 mark
If you want I can let you know how it goes on my car, and then you can decide what you want to do.
Yeah I got quoted $380 for cat back with tip but it's the Pacemaker extractors that were expensive $600 fitted. How hard is it to fit extractors to these cars?
nah not hard, bolt off bolt on... might want to replace gaskets thats all
Hi if your getting some fit gear you can't go past there 3 inch cat back exhaustOriginally Posted by zeep

Is this simular to the FIT 3 inch cat back?
3 is always greater than 2, even for extremely large values of 2.
I'm getting extractors,high flow cat and 2.5inch sports exhaust for my vx $750. But I dont know if there is any benefits in performance alot websites says theres no gain for the V6. Anyone have dyno charts to prove benefits?
You get better results with other mods like im getting the fit rockers, custom chip, exhaust and k&n filter should hopefully give as much power as stock supercharged or 5L then.
I think 3 inch will be too big for an n/a 6 probably kill the power band.
yeah, yeah where did you get that quote from?
profix performance exhaust system. $750 was what I was quoted I even rang them twice to make sure.
I paid $1750 for pacemaker extractors, lukey 2.5" Type R zorst (inc. chrome tip) Aunger CAI and KnN panel filter all fitted..
Sounds pricey but I went for the best..
It's pricey even for what you got.Originally Posted by sno
Did it make much difference to performance or mainly improve sound.
my mate has this setup on his vs ecotec and his car kicks my car all ive got is a catback 2.5 ecotecOriginally Posted by yeah,yeah
performance improvement!! its frees up the pistons well - makes em work less.. people have said my zorst is way louder than 2.5" on other VTs.. ive noticed the same..Originally Posted by nunny
