Yeah go for it mate. I did a twin 2.5" Mandrel on my VYII SS, stock is twin 2 1/4".
Not much difference in size, but makes a world of difference to performance, even more in sound. It's like steroiding your car. Makes me realise stock holden exhausts are just poo.
Go for it, no Commodore owner ever regrets getting a free breathing, great sounding exhaust.
