Good to know, thanks. Do the clubsports all have the bimodal exhausts?
It's part of the SV pack which results in the "340" badges/decals being applied. :)

Standard on certain 'packs', like SV's.
An option on R8's and non R8's.

So if a VF Clubsport Tourer that has a walkinshaw 375kw pack, would that have the bimodal exhaust?

I'm a little clueless tbh, hoping someone could answer that for me. I couldn't seem to see the ability to toggle the bimodal exhaust so I'm assuming it might not have one?
i think im correct in saying series ones were vacuum operated, so theres no control for it?
being a walky exhaust it might not have been refitted.
look down the tailpipe and see if you can see a butterfly

In the R8s the bimodal is controlled via the driving mode dial. You can see how it is operating via EDI (in Gen F)
It is never fully open. Opens above ~4k in all modes, + at idle in sport and performance.

Not sure about Walkys but I would imagine it was the same, if it had bimodal that is

Nah, Walkinshaw is all aftermarket. You’d have to find out if the W375 has a bi-modal system. Probably not, though, as that kit is also fitted to Holden-badged Commodores which didn’t have bi-modal in VF.

Most Walkinshaw 'packs' don't include Bimodal mufflers, unless it originally had Bimodal mufflers fitted.
Does your Tourer have EDI fitted?
