Resonance in the exhuast, mine does it to.

Ive had my full exhaust for a while now and boy do i regret it. After having Extractors and a Cat back installed i was very impressed, it actually sounded pretty decent. Then came the cats... Totally shithouse whole exhaust note changed and i now get resonance in my exhaust at low revs. I...

Im with the RAC mate.

Duel 2.5" on a v6? bit excessive dont you think, unless your not a fan of power lower in the rev range.

Really depends on your personal opinion. The alloytech can be made to sound good but it cant compete with the note the v8's make. Most people go either 2.5" or twin 2.25" catback with centre muffler and rear resonator, then obviously your various brands of extractors and high flow cats. My...

Had this problem once aswell. Apparently its really common, have to get the ignition barrel replaced. But for now try spraying some CRC in it, poke your finger through the whole in the steering column and wiggle it around. Will most likely have to get it replaced though, think its about $200...

12.5 Litre per 100. I like hearing my exhuast =)

I dont get it you say that the cats are up near the manifold? Mine are just infront of my front door handles. Are you saying that i need to put a resonater on each of the pipes coming from the cats?

My system consists of Pacie extractors, High flow cats of some sort. A middle muffler and a rear resonator. Just been to a local exhaust place and they said it might be the fact that i have twin tips welded onto the single 2.5" pipe coming out after the rear resonator, the tips arnt welded all...

Not really keen on taking my exhaust apart, when i start touching things they seem to break =)

Did you remove the heat shield or find some way of securing it?

Just finished off my exhaust with some high flow cats, only problem is now when i accelerate it literally sounds like a rattlesnake under my car. Ive tightened everything all the screws and bolts etc. Its most prominent on a cold start and quietens as the exhaust heats up but is still their...

Cars already tinted at 10% I have to go over the pits due to changing exhaust, insurance company is making me. I dont have a yellow, will they check my whole car or just the parts specified by my insurance company?

I think he was talking about the diff gears?

So i have to take my car over the pits (insurance company is making me because of mods etc.) Everything is legal as far as i know, except for my tint. Is there any less strict pits in w.a? Also is that silver/black tint legal? cheers

Just booked my car in for high flow cats and tune. $1650, shitload cheaper than my previous $2400 quote =) Hopefully see some good gains.

Does getting your car serviced reset your tune? If it does do i have to fork out another 900 to get it vcm tuned again?

Sorry, i ment photos =)

With SL's in rear and lows in front. Preffered stock rims. BTW ive already looked in "My ride"

Is that the ssl and sl?

Want to lower my Sv6 but dont know how low to go. Got the 17" stock rims so i was thinking that ssl (rears) sl (fronts) would be too low? Anyone know how much the springs actually lower your car, i want my tire to be pretty much in line with my guard.

So ive decided to get some high flow cats to fnish of my exhaust system. I know it will almost 100% throw that warning message, do i have to get this tuned out straight away? or can i go for a couple of months ignoring it. Bit strapped for cash atm :cry:

I didnt have my phone with me =( sooo scary!

Well, i was sitting at an intersection wanting to turn left. I look to the right to see if any cars were coming. I see something change lanes. A TRAILOR! a big gardening trailor without a car in front of it. There were cars in front of me so i couldnt move, i just wtched as it come towards me...

Well i recorded a video on my phone but how do i upload it?

Ill try get a sound clip today for you, havnt been on the forum for a bit, sorry.

Extractors went on today, extremely happy with the result. Louder and deeper exactly what i was looking for, with the air con on it has a rumble like a mini 8 =) Ill try get a sound clip up tomorrow afternoon.

Cheers for the heads up man.

My head unit started playing up yesterday, driving home from work every single cd "Could not be read". Turned the head unit off and on and they all worked. Wierd.

I got the 2.5" and dont regret it, bring on the torque i say. Make sure you get 2 mufflers otherwise it will sound like poop =) My extactors go in thursday, ill post a sound clip when its all done.

The cheapest ive found in W.A for pacemakers with ceramic coating is $1100, should i get them? Convince me to :D

My exhaust doesnt crackle at all, i was really surprised when i got it back. My mate has a vz ute and it sounds so much different. So pacies will give it an even deeper note? sweet =) Whats this performance coating stuff? how much is it?

Got a 2.5 inch catback, looking to fit these this week. Will it change the note at all, quite like the sound im getting out of the sv6 as is.

Im guessing something to do with the headers and cats? 02 sensors maybe?

How much did they set you back?

Just wondering if anyone has had the vcm tune in perth. Been to a few places but they seem to know nothing about the torque management program and its really starting to piss me off :)
