VE V8 Calais
Hey guys
I have a stock exhaust in my v8 auto Calais but have an isky cam 224/230, OTR n tune. Being of very limited budget at present would I be wasting my time buying a second hand Ve HSV exhaust , headers ? I have seen a few in gumtree for around $250

HSV Headers aren't bad, ideally you want to find some that have come off a 340 badged VF HSV, as they have a 2.5" outlet size rather than 2.25". The biggest downside for the HSV headers is the cats, but they can be easily changed out at a later date for some high flow cats.
As far as the exhaust goes, you'll want to find one off the later model VF HSVs, it's a 2.5" system with an Xpipe. I picked up a complete HSV system for my car for $400.
