VT Redback exhaust

[hatziVT]

Hi everyone ,

Im looking at buying a 2.5" redback exhaust with extractors and i was wondering if i should cut the resonator out? does it make a difference in the noise and does it cause any problems?

thanks

No resonator on the VT will make it louder and more droney, especially if it is an auto.

I do Wildcat extractors and a Manta 2 1/2" exhaust (WA Redback equivelant) $675 shipped. If you want it without the resonator, I do the tail pipe too. $635 shipped for that one. Comes with all gaskets and clamps. Bolt on too, no welding required, a bit of cutting involved when fitting the extractors though as you retain your original Y pipe.

okay thanks for that but ill probably get it bought and installed in adelaide.

what system is better a Lukey or a Redback?

sorry to thread hi-jack. But what would you do just a cat-back twin 2.5'' exhaust with no resonator for a 2001 VU SS 5.7L for NAAF? shipped to Bathurst 2795?

Lukey is much better. As 'Not_An_Abba_Fan' said you get drone through your cabin when driving. I've got a Lukey Sports Exhaust (2 1/2") in my VT manual and it sound great (no extractors either).

I have 2.5" redback exhaust with extractors.
here's a couple youtube clips to show the outcome

I just got a redback system, after 1 week the paint is bubbled the whole way along the exhaust, touch it and the paint falls off, can't see it lasting long. Full stainless next time
