The V6 engines sound terrible with any form of modified exhaust - a similar sound can be achieved by farting in a milo tin

My advice - if you must change the exhaust, change the rear mufflers to the twin tipped V8 variety

I have just done 2 systems on V6's with 2 more orders placed. I use Manta 2 1/2" mild steel twin "quiet" version. The medium version is raspy and drones, the quiet has an additional muffler that takes out the rasp and drone but is still nice and deep and has a good note on acceleration. There is a video on YouTube of the SiDi ute owned by the guy in my sig, that one is the medium version without the muffler, he wanted loud and he got it. He wasn't happy with the raspy note so I sent him an X pipe, it took the rasp out without making it quieter. I think it's still average sounding and the quiet version is much better.

So was that just catback and rear mufflers?

Yes, Y pipes off the cats, twin front with a muffler and hotdogs, and the rear quad tipped mufflers.

Not _An_Abba_Fan could you PM me a price as the wife wants a bit more note out of her SV6. Already has the quad tip mufflers off a senator.
Cheers
