Default Dual Exhaust on a V6

If I was to get dual exhaust on a V6, would it sound that mean? loud? Or should I just stick with a single?

Listen for yourself and decide

The answer is that just about anything beside the stock exhaust (single or dual) will give you better sound and performace (a few HP's).

H

h pipe is strictly for sound, an X pipe will give you more HP

B/c of the firing order on the V6, there is no need to balance the flow coming out of the pipes like on a V8. Pick H or X and you will not see any difference in performance (unless one is a larger diameter).

But the H will sound better than an X most of the time (reduces the resonance of some of the pop you get too).

If you remove the cats, don't go larger than 2.5 inch (I would stick with 2.25) pipes for duals on a N/A V6 though or you may actually lose hp and tq (tq band will shift upwards a LOT, and car will be slower)
