    Xforce catback system gives out a nice note on the Alloytechs, but then again, Alloytechs have a distinct note and unless you get a serious kit, your noise is going to be lacking.

    You can buy a 2.5" Twin Cat back exhaust for about $300. xforce VZ exhaust, Cars, Bikes, Boats, Full Systems, Holden items at low prices on eBay.com.au

    I do the Redback twin 2 1/4" into single 3", it's not too loud, doesn't drone and gives a good increase right across the rev range. The only system I have heard that doesn't have that distinct high pitched rice sound.

    $485 shipped.

    Redback 2 1/2" single does yes. My guess is he doesn't sell Redback?

    You would be in the minority then. Most people don't like the alloytec with a single 2 1/2" on them.

    meh i went for power > sound. The 2.5 creates enough back pressure for the car to get a decent increase in power where as twin 2.5 is way to much breathing for the car

    Hence why I sell the 2 1/4" twin into 3" single. No back pressure, as it is a bad thing, and increased exhaust velocity.

    Everyone has an opinion, and most people that think they are experts don't like to be told something they haven't figured out for themselves.

    And I bet they all mention back pressure.....
