Do all V6 VX Commodores have a massive exhaust up to the rear muffler?

Dad and I just looked at the underside of the car to look at the suspension and noticed a huge front muffler and what looks to be a 2.5" - 2.75" exhaust pipe up to the rear muffler!

Being a fleet car I wouldn't think they would have installed an aftermarket system but perhaps they did?

So is that stock or what? Because now all I gotta do is get a rear muffler replaced :D (NO I'm not getting a fart cannon!!!)

it would probably be an aftermarket one. standard v6 have a 2.25' or so sized exhaust

Thanks VX_Giantz...

Interesting that Energy Australia would put a 2.5" - 2.75" exhaust on one of their fleet cars...

it does seem weird just for a fleet car but you never know. only way to tell is if youre going to have it replaced, just get the exhaust place to check it out...

Hah, it was just an illusion... The torchlight at night made it look bigger, it's just the standard system.

Nope, no alcohol involved

Seriously, grab a torch and look under your car at night, it might look huge to you too!

Haha i had the same reaction with my car, except mine is a 3" straight through lol, just picked up a stock v8 2.25" or 2.5" from wreakers to get a RWC on it lol :). When i got my car though- it was from the auctions... and i thought they said fleet car also... but oh well... xforce 3" exhaust +1 :)
