    Question Ebay 2.25" xforce exhaust system on 3.6L SV6?

    Hello,
    Just out of curiosity, will this second hand twin 2.25" exhaust system that i've picked up off ebay be sufficient enough for my 3.6L VZ SV6? In the ebay item description it clearly states that there is some minor damage to the exhaust (2 dents) will this decrease flow & performance? If there is someone out there who can give me advise whether to continue with this purchase or stay clear of it, id very much appreciate it.

    Sufficient? Its overkill for a N/A 3.6L . Doesn't matter fit it up, those dents wont impede the airflow much.

    So do you think a single 2.5" would be better in performance and sound wise for my sv6?

    Well up to you. A lot of people have said its very hard to make a VZ V6 sound decent. If it was me, I would get a single 3" after the twin cats (or is that quad cats?).

    EDIT: You've already bought the other system, so fit it up and see how it sounds. If you like it then keep it. If you don't then look around. Won't take long to bolt up.

    I've got a twin 2.25 and it's fine, made a very decent note when I just had the cat back...
