Go a 2.5" single system with a glass pack in the middle and a hotdog in the rear. I would recommend either lukey or redback.

I'm curious also, to know if a v6 sounds good. When i rev my berlina heaps, its not a nice roar like my corolla made, its a very course sound. Wonder if that would sound good with a upgraded exhaust

Check out the V6 development section. There's a thread in there all about v6 exhaust systems.

Basically the least amount of mufflers you have, the louder it will be. If it is just noise you want, have a muffler on the front and a tail pipe on the rear.

yeah thats true, it is a nice sound im after but also abit of performance wouldnt hurt either...?

They start from around $350ish and for a single would probably go up to about $700ish. That would be a stainless steel system.

Don't expect much performance from these. They help a bit but not much. V6's are really limited without massive modification such as a supercharger. Want performance, get a V8 and get it tuned. Soon as I'm off my P's and have some money. That's my plan.

kool thanks for that

I may be able to do you a system out of a warehouse in Dandenong for around $250-$300, I'll find out tomorrow as it's a holiday here today.

[jjsvy]

that sounds pretty good...wat sort of system is it, and is that fitted price?

[blewy09]

i got a 2.5 inch catback done on my vy s for $300 from midas..sounds hot as..the chicks love it it was like $700 to do the full system but what ive got will be fine

awesome man thanks for that. do u know wat brand it is?

Is there any chance anyone can take any video camera footage of their v6 (catback exhaust) idling, and revving?
Im just curious how loud it typically is, i'd hate to have one fitted to mine and not really like it.
Theres a few on youtube but the compression makes it hard to listen to

It is just a warehouse in Dandenong, not a fitting shop so it would only be supplied.

[trentvy]

not like fitting is hard, 2 bolts and 2 hangers half an hour job with a beer and smoke break

[Not_An_Abba_Fan]

25 minutes if you don't smoke....
