hey guys!!
Recently bought an 08 H6 Wagon to be used as a family car. What im lookin for is a little more sound at higher revs but also keep the sound to a minimum at lower revs. Bare in mind this is a family car for taking the kids on a quite weekend and only ripping it when im the only person in the car :D

Well I can suggest you don't get a set of mufflers that PhatGT put together last year. They bring volume in the opposite way to that you ask.

Taking the resonator off the bottom of the airbox will help your cause a little - not really noticeable most times but more noticeable when hard on it revving it out.

Prodrive For you would be ideal. Almost stock under 2.5 rev but when you give it some it opens up but not to loud. I have these but as i dont carry around family want some thing louder. But if you can source them they sound great! With out bein loud.

Looks good! Is it me or is the right side hanging down a bit lower than the left? How does it sound? Did they use those universal mufflers with the tips already on there or did you get to choose the tips for them to weld on?

Just curious whether you went with a generic brand or a branded muffler like MagnaFlow or something?

Hey Tom, Jst a Quick Question
for the Tips, are they individuals welded onto the muffler or a 'twin' tip welded to the muffler? Also are they staggered?
Just trying work it out as i'm trying to to get them done and the exaust shop doesn't know what I'm talking about :roll:

there are a twin tip. and welded to the muffler.

no there are not staggered. this was a hard choice lol i couldnt decide what i wanted. cause staggered was the same price if i remember correctly. staggered would look cool

if the shop doesnt know what your talking about to be honest id be worried. but if you show them a pic then the might understand.

if need be let me know and i;ll take a pic underneath some how.
