    Default vz ute exhaust

    Hey guys just wondering what people think would be a good exhaust for the vz V6 alloytec ute?

    and outa of these three which would sound better without highflow cats and headers and which would sound better with high flow cats and headers?

    -xforce 2.5 twin catback
    -2.5 lukey
    -2.5 twin into single straight through single with rear hot dog
    -2.5 inch twin into single 2.5 strait through with centre muffler

    also im going for best noise not performance

    thanks

    Dude if you want noise, get the rear muffler cut out and get a straight pipe. From what i can tell from hearing vz's with and without headers, theres not much difference in sound.

    But keep in mind that if its really loud, the police will be all over you.

    I took my rear muffler off yesterday for kicks. i have a 06 manual sv6 ute. there was barly any difference from the muffler being on/off. ive heard the sedans without a muffler and they are much louder. not sure if its just my ute but im planning on getting a lukey catback but knoicking up a straight pipe with a hotdog.

    i also took my rear muffler off and just let the exhaust finish there and it sounds pretty good, you can hear a nice deep note in the car between 2-3 grand and then 4-5 grand but it isnt annoying, also drove past cops on the lookout for p platers and there cars and they didnt move so i reckon for a cheap quick fix its the go haha
