Any info on why they went with 3" as their first release? Is it to tap into the FI market or ?? Would think 3" would be excessive for a 2ltr NA motor...

I bought one of the first 3" systems for the VE SS when they first came out and it was definitely one of the best sounding and well priced systems, so I'm excited about this product

Thanks for the updates

I was thinking the same thing. Surely 2.5" is plenty for a 2l engine.
I believe it's mainly to do with how is sounds. The 3" system has a deep sound and is a little louder. It's just an added bonus the the FI guys will have a 3" option available soon. I think this with the UEL headers of the AVO kit would sound awesome.

I'm looking forward to see back-to-back Dyno testing of the 2.5 vs 3" as I care about performance above all else.

There is in fact a Varex version coming! Due early next year.

The 2.5" and 3" systems will come without tips. You can choose an XForce tip or use your own, including the factory one.

Dyno testing will be done once a 2.5" system is available.

You can buy a cat-back or the full system.

Now working with them to determine what headers they will sell.

With regards to the Perrin, they couldn't give me a 100% guarantee that it would work perfectly well in our RHD. They wanted me to 'let them know' if I bought it. Has anyone here in aus fitted the full Perrin header-back?

Tbh I'd prefer to go with the local option especially if price is more attractive as well!
