X-Force are a pretty popular brand for exhausts on VE's, but i have heard that they cause a lot of cabin drone, whilst others have been happy with the result

I just put 1 3/4" Extracotrs with a full Xforce 3" System and no drone at all :)
But with saying that mines a V8 my mate has a VY Storm and hes got a 2.5" system and that sounds awesome..

You'll be right with a Ute mate. They drone with Sedans and Wagons.

I spent $790 on a fitted Mild Steel 2.25" Xforce. You should easily be able to get it for that, if not cheaper.

Just got mine from a local exhaust shop in brissy mate.

Well i just bought a 3" Xforce for my SS so to put your prices in perspective i got quoted:

Mild Steel 3" Catback $720
Stainless 3" Catback $1350
$120 extra to fit.

I went the Stainless. Love it ;)
I got this one from a different shop though cos i wasn't happy with the last places services.

Im a pretty keen bargainer though mate, none of the other boys were able to get quoted those prices.
So unless there is a massive price difference between states, then there is something to work towards lol.

If they are charging under $100 to fit it then that is pretty good.

Video of 2.25 catback Xforce exhaust....

Ok so i wasnt happy with it when i first got it, three or so weeks later, let it build up a bit of carbon....
still NOT happy with it. what do you all think and please be honest,
i have heard.
"sounds like a posty bike"
"sounds like you have a hole in your muffler"
"when did you get a WRX i thought you got a VE"
"sounds a bit funny"
add to the list if you must haha, but seriously tell me what you think.


thanks.

sounds like a v6 to be honest dude, not sure what kind of sound you were chasing. at least it has a bit of burble on the down rev.
