They sound like utter **** with the X pipe in them and personally I think they're overpriced for the quality.

Have a squiz here:

I need to get an in car recording of those systems. The X-force with the Xpipe cut out sounds ALLOT better but still really loud and a bit trashy. (They get a really old school burble under load without the X-pipe)
If you get the mild steel version and remove the X-pipe they're reasonable value.

as said they are not the best,
when I bought my car it had one on it....Its 4 years old now and has big holes of rust on it.
so its time for a new one...
I would say look for a better one, coz there is lots for sale.
as for size ! 3inch is too big...2 1/2 is the right size...

good luck

this is good any more info from people about what exhaust i should get, so xforce no good?

 

[soop]

X-force is okay if you get it cheap I.e under $500.
Get the X pipe pissed off though.

 

[Lumps of cheese]

Pacemaker are the ****, or difillipo if you're real keen.

 

[soop]

Yup, three times the price too

 

[jacko b]

would love a difillipo system but the most i would spend it about 2500

You can get a whole Pacemaker exhaust system for $2350 off ebay. Extractors, cats and SS exhaust system.

i couldnt complain about the system that was on my vy ss. paccy 4>1's in 1 3/4" with ceramic coating, 3" paccy metal cats, twin 3" x force in stainless. was LOUD but in my eyes...or ears sounded good. only thing was that it needed to be tuned so the fuel cut off is de-activated to stop it popping and farting on overrun.

yes it will loose a tiny bit of bottom end but the gains are alot better in the top end.

i got just the twin 3" to begin with and made no really noticable seat of pants difference.
