Powering up the exhaust
(Forgive me if I make an error in my car tech, I am new to performance atm; still studying everything)
So I had a pretty good setup with the exhaust layout for my vehicle (most options if not, all are axelbacks) I thought about getting a borla quad axelback system and seeing if borla does anything extra for midpiping. I thought about having a magnaflow tru xpipe since borla doesn't make headers or V6 xpipes. I'm keeping the cats on and because there isnt exhaust manifolds (or external ones) for the V6s I cant do anything about the headers. (Unless there is a way in which case I dont see it yet) I would love to increase pipe diameter size but idk if that's possible since the exhaust is 2.25 in and 2.5 out for the borla axelback. My question is I would like the best exhaust set up possible. Or if I'm in the wrong direction, can anyone direct me into the right path? |

American Racing Headers makes some down pipes for 6th Gen V6 Camaros and both the Catted and Non-Catted pipes would require a tune. GM integrated the exhaust manifold onto the engine block for 2012+ V6 Camaros so down pipes are your only option. Do you have the NPP Quad tip exhaust on your Camaro or just the single tip exhaust?

If you have a dual exhaust and wanted to install a quad tip one you would have to get a new rear diffuser that allows for quad tip or NPP systems. That would allow you to put a quad tip exhasut system on your Camaro, otherwise you would have to stick with a duel tip system. As long as you don't effect the factory Catalytic Converters you would past your emissions testing. Here are the Cat-back exhaust options for your 6th Gen V6 that we offer, all of these delete your secondary Cats though so it would fail a visual inspection. Here is a link to all the axle backs we offer for your V6, as long as you are choosing one that is single tips on each side it will fit your Camaro. If passing your emissions test is a deal breaker I suggest going to a local tester and confirm what you need to pass before purchasing anything.

For the ARH downpipes video we would need a Camaro to do the install and schedule a time in the future for it. We currently do not have a V6 we can work on here.

A lot of people want to hear the difference between stock pipes and those ones. I'm pretty sure you can find someone from Houston in this group. https://www.facebook.com/groups/258745904565294/

We will be keeping an eye out for anyone in the Houston Area who would want a set of these down pipes installed so we can make a video on them. Any one who would be interested can reach out to us over the phone at 1-855-742-7835 (choose fourth option for support) or via email at support@phastek.com.
