Has anyone done there sv6 zorst in melbourne that is 100% happy with the result? If so wher did u get it done? What did u get done? N how much?

Hot dog?? Resinators?? Twin 2 1/2 to 3?? High flow cats??

Got mine from The Muffler Man in Prahran, recommended it to a couple of people, not sure what their outcome was :S

It was a custom built exhaust system, no extractors, just the pacemakers and the system, as well as a stainless steel tip. Tis a 2.5" Exhaust.
Total was $700 fitted. And they guy there is a great bloke so he'll help you out a fair bit.
As for the noise, I'm going back soon to make mine louder, it's more of a roar than the deep V8 sound, so it really comes down to what you prefer. I like it though, for an Alloytec, I've tried a few and this one is the best one yet.

Correct, pacemaker is a brand of extractors. Not sure if they sell other parts like mufflers or not tho....

Depends on what mods you've got.
I had an SS Growler CAI already in my car, as well as my Tune done, so I figured you might get a bit of extra grunt by changing them over.

Sorry for hijacking your thread OP but I have been told by numerous exhuast places (makes me think there telling the truth because they would be losing money) tell me it's a waste of time changing cats on a N/A stock car. To put things in perspective I got a full custom exhaust for my Toyota Soarer cat back high flow cat. 3 inch from turbo to cat then twin 2.5 inch from cat to muffler either side with chrome tips and all mandrel bent for $1700 and I am in mackay. $2k seems way too much for an exhaust.

He's got 2k to spend, doesnt mean he will use the whole 2k
And I see where you're coming from with the whole NA stock car not worrying bout the cats.
If I had my time again, I wouldnt change them, but honestly, its not detrimental to my car, so Im not too fussed.

For an alloytec I think just an exhaust system would do, leave the extractors and the cats, but thats just from my experience, some people may have had different experiences.

In all honesty I would just get some extractors, and the pipes. Holden have been putting very good cats in their cars for years, so unless they are rooted or really old then I'd leave them alone. Besides the SV6s have 2 in them already, way more then enough.

I'd probably get the dual into single system like Not_An_Abba_Fan has suggested, but see if you can listen to a few cars, if you know some people with them, or even go around to a few shops, they should have some like systems on cars in the shop.
