Default AUIII Exhaust

G'day all. Upon inspection before purchasing my AUIII XR6 VCT ST i noticed that it had aftermarket XForce extractors (i know they have been known to crack, but they haven't cracked so i'm happy) and an unusally quiet exhaust note when driving. Upon ringing the dealer who serviced the car, they had no knowledge of the exhaust but their report suggested that the car had been looked after well (its current condition confirms this).
However, closer inspection of the exhaust reveals that it is different to any other exhaust system i've seen on an XR6. I'm going to do some alterations as i want to be able to hear the glorious falcon six note when punting (engine is louder atm e ) Here are some pics, is this the same or different to what other XR6 owners have?

The cat back system looks like a factory system fitted to the XR6's with IRS & VCT engine only.
