hey guys,

some of you know me by now but im fitting out a 02 BA xr6t for when I come off my P's in september.

by the time I will be driving the car it will have:

Injectors

Valve Springs

Tune

T56 Short shift (not really needed in the exhaust making process but just to give you all the info)

Fuel Pump

Turbo oil line

Hot Side Piping from RAPID

UB CAI from RAPID

(going for the crazy spool and intake sound :D )

now my querry is, which exhaust?

a mate of mine who works in a exhaust shop says 4" dump, 3 1/2 " cat, and twin mendrel bent 2 1/2" cat back (hurricane system)

he says they sound gnarly while having no drone and the sound is just unreal

my mechanic says they use the xforce 3 1/2" system which 4" dump and 4" cat

he doesnt say what the sound is like but does note that it is deeper from his POV, no complaints from his customers he has used it on and much easier to make power with.

im just wondering if you guys have came across a system which you find to be good for performance while also sounding absolutely insane.

most types of systems will suit my performance needs as for the next couple years ill be sitting at 300rwkw or so as my mechanic refuses to go past that on stock bottom end, which I am happy with as I dont want the car to miss a beat. and I trust his opinion as he has been working on them since 02 or so:D

down the track (3 to 4 years) I will be getting a fg f6 bottom end and plenum + intercooler so I wouldnt mind it if the exhaust im getting will be able to handle the power that that combo will then generate

thanks for taking the time to hear me out and cant wait to hear from you

cheers, damien

How do you expect to fit under battery intake with stock cooler piping? It won't work... Cold side goes under battery

im doing racebox now not UBCAI cuz of that exact problem, plus I can use it when I up the power in a couple years :)

im thinking xforce 4"dump 4" cat and twin 2 1/2" system before nizpro has said the rear muffler in the 3 1/2" system is only 2 1/2 " so it restricts flow quite alot

its actually samller than 2 1/2". I measured both the internals of the xforce muffler and it was around 1 3/4". If you use the XFORCE 3.5" just fit a straight through muffler at the rear and the system will easily support up to 400rkw. It sounds nice and deep without the drone.
