just a quick question... your exhaust... you said it was a single pipe.... does it still have 2 mufflers? or just one at the front... because im trying to get a cat back for mine but the only set with 2 mufflers has a dual pipe coming out of the last one.... but i only want one pipe so i can put tips on it.....

Yeah it's a single pipe, all stock standard then I removed the rear resonator and put a straight pipe and tip on in it's place

Yours is a vy right? You should be able to get single 2.5" systems, redback do a nice set up in my opinion

yeah mines a VY but i was told putting a single system without 2 mufflers is illegal because the car came with 2.... is this true?
becasue the only redback cat back single i can find only has one muffler....

I'm not 100% sure on that one, I figured that technically it still had cats, a muffler and exhaust that finished at the back of the car it would be ok. I just got a rego check on mine and it passed fine, I think if it's not overly loud and you don't act like an idiot you should get to bothered about it

so i got my lowered shocks and put them in, rides much better now. but now my muffler is stuffed and rattling so im just gunna replace the muffler with a redback (opinions?) and keep original size pipe

also dynamatted the doors with the little bit i had, even the small amount sounds awesome, much better so im gunna buy a bulk pack and fill the doors up a bit more

here is some pics (sorry bout blurry quality on some) :
