Is there no exhaust for the 190KW SV6 that sounds decent for an auto without droning?

On my ute it was the 175 I had a 2.5inch single with a small rear muffler, didn't drone much an sounded good

haha I like how you have "much" in there, im sure ur car was ur baby whitesack and im not targeting you in particular here but...from what I"ve seen/heard over the years...I"ve never really found a V6 with a good note that has no drone...if you want that deep burble n rumble...you need a V8 and im not usually the guy that would say get a V8 because I'm all about not spending 120 bucks a week on petrol, but if you are chasing performance..save ur pennies until you are done with this then just unload on something with a bigger engine or turbo'd.

It did drone an my v8 drones a lot if you sit in the back, didn't effect me in the ute cause it was a ute, it sounded ok for a 6 bit I regret buying it, worthless having a nice car with a 6 in it

When my transmission was good having the v6 was not an issue nice power and cost in fuel, considering to as I had a 4 cyclinder with crap all power for 4 years it was a worthy upgrade.

All I want now apart from my transmission fixed is a decent note of some degree not loud and such.

Currently the transmission can be heard much more than the engine or exhaust.

With the paddle shifts, if you have an exhaust would changing down gear give it that drone noise?
It did a bit in my vx with the 1,2 and 3 when I used it on hills.
