    Agree with impulsive. Save your money on the exhaust. Get it looking nice with lowered and tinted and then worry about the exhaust sound/performance once you can afford a full system (extractors/high flow cats/exhaust)

    If you want a good bang for your buck exhaust for a V6 try using a second hand VT2-VY2 (not VZ) HSV exhaust, twin 2 1/4" and all stainless, no drone and not too noisy.
    They come up on ebay all the time from $150-$350.

    I do a twin 2 1/4" into single 3" that sounds nice and deep with no drone.

    $495 shipped.

    Ive heard nothing but good things about NAAF's systems so Id well recomment the system he said above. Well priced to. From what I read the alloytech responds well to putting Hi-flow cats on as well so there are some for sale in the sponsors section of this website for $300/set. Not bad. Extractors will vary greatly in price depending on brand etc but just shop around.
