Exhaust help...

[Mr540]

Hey, I got a 99 model Vt, and im thinking about having my exhaust done, The thing is, I dont know what kind of exhaust to go with.

I dont want it to sound too much like an 8 like alot of cars do these days, but i want it to make a bit of noise at the same time sounding nice.

Any help or suggestions would be great

My suggestion is the FIT 3" cat back. Great exhaust for note & flow with the option of 2 resonators to choose from!!

Check it out v6supercharged.com.au

No resonator? is that OK or not? phew that would sound loud and "growl"

Does the VX6 have resonator? what is it ? is it the middle muffer after the cat converter?

like in order from the front to rear - headers / catalyst / resonator / muffler

The VX stock system after the cat is muffler/muffler. A resonator is a straight through design muffler that works to quiet the exhaust noise. A straight through performance muffler and a resonator are basically the same. The job they do determines the name you call it. Typically a resonator is fitted to the rear of a sports system but can be any additional can added to the system to quieten it. Most people don't fit the resonator because they like the note, but on auto cars they tend to drone without one. Personal choice.

FIT 3" cat back is designed for a supercharged engine, it will not perform on a N/A. Go 2 1/2" with straight through perforated tube design mufflers that are glass packed. Magna Flow use stainless steel with spun volcanic rock, dearer but they last 10 times longer.
