well i used to work in a exhaust place, and looking at the stock bora rear muffler, i thought that big heavy thing is very restrictive and wanted some thing more along the lines of a R32 rear muffler.
I saw this picture on the web somewhere
so i got one made up, only the back muffler for now from the resonator. i have left the stock cats and resonator on for now, in a few weeks when iam financial again i will put high flow cats and an better resonator on.
the rear muffler is the same as the picture exiting into quad tips, the muffler is 3 section, with centre section is hollow where the main exhaust enters then each end has a chamber filled with fiberglass exiting into the tips.
the sound now is awesome even with the stock resonator, on idle it sounds stock, but rev it and it releases a magical V6 roar.
for those interested the stock v6 muffler weighs nearly 25 kg this set up is about 8kg.
tommorrow it get lowered so will post some more pics.

Very nice... Functional and fashionable... What sort of dollars are we talking? Group Buy discounts???
Also that rear valance does not look standard, did u change that or did that come with the Oettinger Ed?

i can ask him for a price for a group but i would need some numbers.
still $300 + gst is not bad at all for a custom set up.
the tips were $50 each but thats because there twins, i was looking at single similar to R32 tips and they were $25 each so that drops the price, i liked the twin tip quad set up as i saw one on a Golf and thought it looked awesome, plus i think it ties in nicely with my oettinger rear valance.
also check out supercheap they have a good selection of stainless steel tips its good to get and idea what you might like, and there cheaper than buying from an exhaust place especially if you get them on special.

That looks really nice. Is it done in mild or stainless? I do a lot of short trips, so would probably need to go for stainless, elsewise I'll end up eating the exhaust in a short period of time.
The standard rear valance wouldn't suit that design either unfortunately - so I guess I'll have to see what's around...
Nothing to see here...
