At a 2½in bore, the Exhaust Systems Australia HOLDEN-COMMODORE-VE-VF-V6-V8-SEDAN-WAGON-2-5-KIT-WITH-2-X-HOTDOG-XPIPE-4-X-SC-TI is a 304-stainless kit for the VE–VF Commodore sedan and wagon — the milder-bore option in this family, with twin hotdogs, an X-pipe and four SC tips.
What does the 2½in bore suit?
This kit is built on a 2½in bore, the more street-oriented sizing for a VE–VF that hasn't been pushed to a full big-bore build. A 2½in run keeps gas speed up for everyday response while still freeing the system over standard, and it's made in 304 stainless for corrosion life over raw or aluminised tube. The four SC tips finish it at the rear bar with a tidy twin-each-side look.
What do the twin hotdogs and X-pipe contribute?
Two hotdog resonators and an X-pipe crossover handle the tuning. The X-pipe balances pressure across the banks and smooths the note, while the hotdogs cut drone with a straight-through path rather than a restrictive chamber. It's a free-breathing layout that leans on resonators and tip count instead of a heavy rear muffler, matched here to the milder 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 SC 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 SC tips at the bar. Bring the Commodore in and we'll confirm fitment and book the bay.
