    Alas, look no further Mate!!! Click-on the "link" below for the absolute perfect set-up. A dual-pipe output system (complete with dual chrome tips) using a single DynoMax Turbo Muffler (1-inlet; 2-outlet) made specifically for our 3.5 Isuzu engine and is available from Summit Racing. It will be my next set-up if (errrr; when) my OEM set-up falls off onto the street like yours has done. See "link" below, and get ready to immediately call Summit Racing with your credit card info!!!

    How is this made for our 3.5? There was never a vehicle with our engine available with dual tail pipes. The pipes that come with this kit certainly will not bolt up in the vx. The 3.5 referenced in the description of that setup is a chevy inline 5 available on the colorado and the rebadged isuzu I-mark pickups with the same motor. Nowhere in the application list of that kit is there a 6 cylinder engine or a V configuration. The muffler might fit, but the rest of the pipes would likely be useless or worse, confusing to the installers. Not to mention that kit is over $200 higher than buying the muffler by itself. My advice to Erik would be put your credit card away and look further.

    This thread talks about getting Borla to offer a cat back system for the VX.

    Unfortunately, I haven't made it down to Johnson City yet. There are a few members who are closer than I so maybe we can sweet talk one of them to stopping by.
