I’m unsure for any exact bolt ons for the 11 and bellow but I’m aware there is more then the 12 and above models, if you do go bolt on, I’d stick to 2.5 MAX on a single muffler design; I know x force has quite a few set ups, could check them out and just watch some YouTube recordings of them.

You could go custom but then the variables get even wider, I’ve had a horrible experience even up until now with custom exhausts but I didn’t do my homework well enough and I went with a dual exhaust set up which I wouldn’t advise, heaps of other posts in the exhaust forum to show case what others have put together!

Beautiful, thanks man! Someone told me to go with a 2.5 I was just unsure where and what to go with man, but thanks for tip brother, helps out a lot!

I prefer a single outfit other a dual either way, but I’ll sus out that exhaust forum man!

Sounds sweet! I’m sure a lot of bolt ons are 2.5incj, if it’s a 2.5 inch axelback itl be perfect, 2.5 from the cat you might lose some low end torque but gain much more on top. Hope all goes well!

Well I’m still getting a RA snorkel and a tune done when I get it all together. Basically anything I can do to legally make my hatch pump basically haha,
I’m basically new to the whole mechanically side of cars, I just paint cars and know a thing or two, so more help the better :D :D :D

Hey all gotta learn some how! I learnt nearly all I needed to on here which is pretty cool! Snorkel sounds good! Grab a new drop in filter for bit more flow and you’re good to go!

Not sure if this applies to your 2011 car but newer 2ltr cars are fitted with a clamshell manifold
where as 2.4 ltr models where fitted with a much more efficient extractor style manifold

I live in a northern suburb of Melbourne and if you or for that matter anyone is interested
its available free and includes heat shield and fitting instructions etc: Pick up only.

This could be of interest to anyone moving to aftermarket headers from a clamshell setup,
just for the heat shield, as many if not all, after market header are produced to accept this heat shield.

The 2.5 inch system is wonderful if you have a turbo onboard.
2.25 for NA will do nicely
Have a read thru a performance exhaust book a d it will tell you what I said
Or look thru the Lukey Australia muffler web site , it will tell the same story

https://www.lukey.com.au/pages/exhaust-size

Getting the right size exhaust is a definite must.
Make the exhaust diameter too big and the exhaust velocity decreases significantly.
Too small and it's too restrictive.
The stock NA exhaust diameter is 2 1/8th of inch.
Our can't buy that size at an exhaust shop.
Closest thing they have is 2.25 inch
If.you going to do this
Get extractor and then the fill system to replace the catalytic converter with 200 cell high flow
