Holden VE Commodore Exhaust SystemsAll Holden Commodore VE V8 engines are matched to a dual exhaust, quad outlet system; all High Output Alloytec engines (the one producing 190kw) are matched to a dual exhaust, dual outlet system; and other Alloytec engines (the one producing 180kw in the Omega) are matched to a single exhaust, single outlet system.

Vehicle Systems Engineer – Chassis & Powertrain Integration, Andrew Holmes, said the all-new architecture also allowed Holden to pursue a clean sheet approach for exhaust systems.

“We focused on ensuring low back pressure and improving the burble in all exhaust systems, particularly the V8. Up to 12 per cent lower back pressure assists significant increases in gas flow efficiency which helps deliver power and torque increases.” Holmes said.
