V8 SS exhaust on a v6

[batemada]

I am able to get hold of an exhaust from a 02 VY ss that has only done 20000kms.
Would this fit on my VY v6 if fitted from the cats back?

Yes it will. Won't make a scrap of difference to the car though, probably make it quieter.

*edit* hang on...is your car in your avatar? If so, it won't fit the wagon.

Yes it will fit a sedan, but it wont fit a wagon.

NA i just havnt updated my Avatar for a while. it is a 2.5 inch system and i can get it cheaper than a custom 2.5 system.

so if you think it will be quieter than normal, whats the diff between a custom one

If the exhaust is the stock VY SS exhaust, it has three mufflers, on a V6 it will be pretty quiet. No performance increase at all. Even the V6 sports exhaust will only really make it louder.

You can fit it up just fine, definitely fit it if you are thinking of supercharging later on, it compliments a supercharged engine fantastically!

Well i didnt end up getting it being as it was off a VX and wasnt in very good nick. I have been offered a near new (5000kms old) 2.5inch exaust off a VZ S2 V6 Crewman for $50NZ. I know that i may have to shorten the lenth of the main pipe but other than that is there anything i need to look out for?

A Crewman system might not fit over the rear axle, as the Crewman has a live rear axle on leave springs, I think. I would imagine the bends around the rear suspension would be totally different.

Correct, Crewman will not fit a sedan. Not even close.
