It should... they are both a 2.5" pipe. I believe that the only difference between the 6 and 8 in their catback system is the size of the exhaust tip.

Keep in mind that is with the BBK long tubes which will alter the sound dramatically.

Below is a video of the same car, but with JBA shorty headers and the Pypes cat-back (shorty headers will alter the sound a bit as well, but this is much closer to what a stock car with just the cat-back would sound like): Not bad!

i sent an email to pypes and they said it would work, i just need to change the rear valance sine they are 4' pipes. arnt the exhaust pipe wholes for v6 and v8 the same,, i say that because when you look at the v6 rear valance and the v8, since the v8 has bigger tips, theres less space around exhaust whole. does anyone know?

4" Tips fit fine. That's what mine are. I'm pretty sure the rear valence on the V6 & V8 are identical.
