ninja_motors 10 Posted November 6, 2011 Looking for a stainless cat back system for my vr6, fancy something quite loud. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pete 0 Posted November 6, 2011 I think if you want real noise places like longlife can do you a system which is tailored to your preferences, or if your feeling more flush try Hayward and Scott. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 0 Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) I'd love a stainless system, but I really like the tail pipe of a standard VR's exhaust system.... and not seen an after market one with a similar design. Edited November 7, 2011 by VR6Pete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
swiftkid 1 Posted November 7, 2011 If your after a standard looking performance stainless steel system try DUBpower VR6Pete. As for something loud, generally most VR systems are reasonably quiet, its only when you start removing boxes and then cat when it gets loud but then you have problems with MOT time. As Pete says longlife or powerflow can make you a custom system whatever shape and volume. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 0 Posted November 7, 2011 nice, any pics of on the car? I know I'm being anal, but didnt really want the rolled tail pipe, but probably the best ive seen so far :) Pete Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 7, 2011 Get a Jetex if you want an OE tailpipe and as for noise, why splash out on a stainless exhaust when all you have to do is delete the suitcase silencer for the cost of a 90 degree pipe and a couple of clamps!

coullstar 0 Posted November 7, 2011 I think thats what Im going to do, has anyone actually done this on a standard exhaust yet? Ive a nearly new standard rear box and it looks spot on so dont want to go with an aftermarket rear box. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6Pete 0 Posted November 7, 2011 my middle box is on the verge on of rotting through, buy my rear box doesnt look too bad!!! just the pipe going into it is a little rusty, but I love the look of the OEM tail.... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

P3rks 11 Posted November 9, 2011 I have a Magnex VR6 cat-back system. Oval tailpipe. Great condition Not the loudest but a beautiful sound. £400ish new.. I'll take £250ono Rich Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any info on this i know its a simple enough thing but still ? What steel to use and who would do it just a metal fabricator ? Sounds like a plan for some good noise with easy return to standard Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted November 9, 2011 I shouldn't think a fabricator would be needed tbh. Jetex have a very comprehensive selection of custom parts - http://www.jetex.co.uk/website/custom_parts.php?mat=Stainless&dia=2.5+inch I must admit, it's been a long time since I've seen the suitcase so I can't be specific on lengths and bore size etc. I tend to just buy things on a hunch and it usually works out :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sexybourbon 0 Posted November 9, 2011 I tend to just buy things on a hunch and it usually works out I usually do the same although 95 percent of the time it never works out lol and it ends up ebay or getting sent back !
