Just enjoy driving it in current form for awhile.That way you can have a good look around the forum and see what looks good and what works for the 3.0RB.

Welcome to the forum!

Pretty sure the Xforce catback ticks all the right boxes mate Heard Simon's last month, sounded great

And +1 for the lip. If you're gonna do the lip, definitely do the grill as well. IMO the stock one is uggllayyyyy

yeah? how loud was xforce catback though?
haha, looking forward to my tax cheque in a month or so, lets just say that

Also,
WHERE CAN YOU FIND A SERVICE MANUAL FOR THE 3.0 MODEL
haha, i have looked actual everywhere on the internet and i cant find anything, has anyone else had this problem!?

You'll have to ask Simon, all I did was rev the thing from what I heard in the cabin, it didn't sound too intrusive, but really it all depends on your centre pipe (whether you have a big assed resonator or a hot dog) and the mufflers.

i might just do what some people have done on here;
keep stock mufflers, y pipe and centre section, replace cats with high flow versions, remove third cat and replace with 2-1 collector?

[alessandro132]

Could also do that!

Here bilco, this is my catback system

its not too bad. sedate driving and you can hold a normal conversation in the cabin.
under wide open throttle (WOT) its very nice and brings out the beautiful 6cyl boxer sound

awesome thank you !

mild steel or stainless?
what would be the difference? one would rust quicker or?

a little bit of A and a little bit of B

the mild steel kit is coated in a heat proof paint so it should theoretically last for quite a while, stainless will last for nearly forever.

mild steel will give a bass-ier note to the sound, stainless will give a rasp-ier note to the sound.
i myself have the mild steel system, as they didnt have the stainless kit at the time of purchase, but were getting in an order of the mild steel system the following monday

too be honest ill be going with the cheaper option, plus the mild steel looks rad!
i reckon that this exhaust will be the first mod ill be getting! yeaahhh

[WheelieBin]

That didn't take long

That's one good thing about the RX. It's age, relative worth and the fact that I will be getting rid of it at some stage make it a good defence to the mod bug!
