Pacemaker Performance Cat-Back Exhaust System with Rear Pipe Only for Holden VT Series 1 Sedan (5.0L V8) - PP5050-02
Unlock maximum flow efficiency and unleash an aggressive, uncompromised muscle car bark from your iron-block powerplant with the Pacemaker Sport Systems heavy-duty performance cat-back exhaust solution. Specifically engineered to clear the standard floor pan lines, chassis layout, and independent rear suspension geometry of the early VT Sedan platform, this high-flow configuration replaces the traditional rear tail resonator assembly with an unrestricted, straight-through "Rear Pipe Only" section. By maximizing gas flow velocity and eliminating restrictive factory rear texturing, it delivers a loud, raw muscle car rumble on throttle. It is the ultimate match for drivers searching for maximum sound output and optimized mid-to-high end scavenging performance from their 5.0L V8 classic sports sedan. Note: Fits Holden VT Series 1 Sedan models (1997–1999) equipped with the 5.0L Holden V8 engine configuration; does not fit Series 2 Gen III LS1 builds.
Features:
Precision-manufactured in Australia to deliver the absolute peak in raw acoustic output and flow efficiency for the classic VT Commodore V8 sedan platform.
- Rear Pipe Configuration: Built with a straight-through rear assembly that deletes the traditional tail resonators for maximum exhaust bark and completely unrestricted flow.
- True Cat-Back Section: Complete performance intermediate plumbing and straight-through tail exit configuration designed to secure cleanly behind original factory or high-flow converter paths.
- Premium Materials: Constructed completely from durable Exhaust Grade 409 Stainless Steel for superior longevity under high thermal stress.
- Mandrel Bent Tubing: Heavy-duty performance pipe structure ensures a smooth, constant internal diameter to optimize exhaust gas velocity and prevent backpressure.
- High-Velocity Center Section: Features optimized center core performance mufflers to manage gas tracking while preserving a deep, unbaffled acoustic layout.
- Direct Bolt-On Layout: Engineered as a comprehensive, vehicle-specific full bolt-up kit that mounts directly onto existing factory hangers—no custom fabrication required.

Important Fitment Notes:
- Specifically engineered to fit Holden VT Series 1 Sedan platforms powered by the original Australian 5.0L V8 iron-block engine configuration (1997–1999).
- Series Specific Engine Fitment: This product only fits the early Series 1 production run featuring the traditional Holden V8. It will not fit VT Series 2 or subsequent platforms equipped with the 5.7L Chevrolet Gen III LS1 aluminum V8 block.
- Sedan Specific Chassis Layout: This configuration features tailor-formed exhaust pipe lengths, specific bend profiles, and bracket placements designed precisely to mount cleanly under the standard sedan floor pan. It will not adapt correctly to Ute or Station Wagon models.
- The "Rear Pipe Only" deletion of the rear resonator assembly creates a significantly louder, unfiltered acoustic profile compared to full-muffler or traditional resonated setups.
- Direct bolt-on design reuses vehicle-specific factory hanger positions. No custom fabrication or cutting is required.
- Professional automotive performance technician installation is highly recommended to guarantee ideal ground clearance and tight seals under the floor.
