Ok, my turn to ask a question now :)

Just got a new car that is basically the same as a Pontiac G8. I'm getting some headers put on soon and will have to move the HO2 sensors further down the exhaust...

So the questions are:
- Does anyone know where you might be able to gate an extension loom for what must be a common requirement?
- I've found a loom for a LS2 (GTO) so the next questions is; is this likely to be the same for a later model vehicle (L76)?

Thanks all :cheers:

Cheers,

How do you find the performance of their exhausts vs. say an XForce of Di Fillippo? It looks like the VE system has an 'H' merge which is kind of old school (or the photo is not of the actual system).

I have found Manta exhaust better and have made more torque and power than xforce.
They are better made and are made out of thicker pipe (mild or stainless)
No drone aswell.
Not sure on the H pipe as i have not use one on a VE yet but do know your can order a system with the proper X Pipe as a option
They also do a lot of R&D on exhaust and dyno new designs.

My KPM system for the VE does this rather than H -

Seems well made and is fitted up to Pacies.
