Finished with AC tips, the Exhaust Systems Australia HOLDEN-COMMODORE-VE-VF-V6-V8-SEDAN-WAGON-2-5-KIT-WITH-2-X-HOTDOG-XPIPE-4-X-AC-TI is a 2½in 304-stainless kit for the VE–VF Commodore sedan and wagon, with twin hotdogs, an X-pipe and four AC tips.
What sets the AC-tip version apart?
The styling cue here is the AC tips — four of them at the rear bar, the detail that sets this kit apart from the SC-tip build in the same family. Underneath, it's a 2½in system in 304 stainless, the street-oriented bore for a VE–VF that hasn't gone to a full big-bore build, with the 304 grade chosen for its corrosion life over raw or aluminised tube.
What do the hotdogs and X-pipe do?
Two hotdog resonators and an X-pipe crossover handle the silencing and balancing. The X-pipe evens pressure across the banks and smooths the note, while the hotdogs tune out drone with a straight-through path instead of a restrictive chamber. It's a free-breathing recipe leaning on resonators and the tip count rather than a heavy rear muffler, matched to the 2½in bore.
Will it suit my VE–VF sedan or wagon?
It's listed to fit the Holden Commodore VE–VF V6 and V8 sedan and wagon, built on a 2½in bore in 304 stainless with AC tips. Confirm your exact body, engine and series with the workshop before ordering — the sedan and wagon route differently at the rear.
How do we fit it in the Illawarra?
Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits this 2½in stainless kit in-house across the Illawarra. We route the pipework, set the X-pipe, hang both hotdogs and line up all four AC tips square at the bar. Bring the Commodore in and we'll confirm fitment and book the bay.
