I don’t see a lot of posts on Y62 patrols on the forum. seeing that they have been around for some time I would have thought there is way more going around and options for upgrades.
im looking at a performance upgrade on my Y62 on the exhaust system to improve fuel, performance and sound. Any advise or recommendations from anyone who did this?
I saw (and heard) a very nice system on a Bronze Y62 here in Melkbos but could not trace the owner yet to get more details on what he did. If anyone knows him I would like to be put in touch with the owner.
Im also looking at slightly bigger tire option without having to modify the suspension which I believe comes with all kinds of issues.
Any Y62 owners that can advise on this will be appreciated

Re: Y62 upgrades help
What size tires are you currently rolling with?
AFAIK 35' fit on y62 with standard suspension, depending on rim offset (think you might need a lower offset - to push tyre slightly out to prevent rubbing.).
WRT to exhausts, might be a good idea to speak to the guys at Viper Performance Exhausts. They a bit far from you though, but might be able to give you advice.
On some vehicle models they do have ready build exhaust systems that can be couriered and fit - not sure about y62.
