Plenty on here with full systems as a group buy was done a couple of years ago.
By the time it's here that catback only system will have cost you as much as a system from someone like AAS.

Hi Kev, I've got that exhaust on my 04 CV8. It's mated up to VXR tubular headers.

The one in your link has the quiet rear section fitted. I've got both the quiet and loud pipes for mine, but have never fitted the quiet pipes. You're welcome to come and have a listen smile

I like the pacemaker stuff but even with lt headers it is very quiet even on loud setting. I reverted back to the wortec as I wanted it to be anti social but the pacemaker system is the one to have if you like your neighbours.

Don't care about neighbours but not a real fan of wortec I want something that sounds deep and bassy more than loud and proud

I keep the car garaged in Canterbury, but stay in london weekdays for work, so I'm often going past the Medway area. Could potentially stop on my way past tomorrow evening. Or, I'll be at thunder road next week if you're going to that.

I've put the centre silencers back in so it's a bit more bassy now, but not as deep as the Pacemaker

You want a 3" system then. With 1 7/8" headers and no cats, and an H pipe rater than X -pipe.

No problem. For some reason I thought you were in the Medway area. Happy to meet at some point nonetheless.

Something to do with gas flow. H pipes generally create a deeper choppier sound than x pipes.
