"""Hi I'd like to get the exhaust systemÂ
But what would you say the noise level or difference will be from stock ,slightly louder , much louder , or obnoxious loud . Me
?
Seller
Hi. It will probably be a little louder than stock undrr acceleration. Sportier. It's a brand new turbo muffler never installed. I decided to go with a header. Thanks Gary
Hi Gary and will it fit a 1.7 engine with the notch exit location ? Me
It should it was o n my 1.7. But every car is different .Muffler is a little bigger so you may need to dent it a little to fit. My suggestion would be to have a muffler guy change it out and they should he able to fit it easily.
Seller
Here is chart to help you make sure it will fit your exchangers.

Yes, take tape measure. Inside holes should be 21.5 apart. Measure center of the hole to center of the hole. (CAN NOT BE LESS! If it is, it is probably a 2.0)
Outside holes should be 29.5.
If not, it is probably for a 2.0
The 1.7 body models also had a different hole for the roll pan. Maybe someone else can offer more information. What year is your 914?
Hope this helps.

So it's a 30 dollar muffler welded to a 914 manifold
What do you think this cost to make yourself?
It will fit the early exchangers with the turned up pipes in back. Excgangers are listed in cg too. I'm the seller. Any issue may be the muffler will need a dent or too to fit depending on the car which is normal. You can have all this made but it won't be for $125.
Regarding the sound, its something like brrruuuuummmmm!
exhaust note will be comparable to a bursch. shipping $ will prob suck.
If the exhaust system is local to you as your post states, why not drive your car to the seller, unbolt your current system, six bolts, and test fit the new system? With new bolts removal of the muffler is one of the easier 914 tasks. Wear gloves as that system will be hot!
It's a flippin' Sebring exhaust system with a different muffler attached. The original was a round glass pack as I remember. It would burn out fairly rapidly with a commensurate increase in loudness in the exhaust note.
Bursch had the oval muffler like the one pictured.
Performance Products sold them for one. At the time they were $129 new. I had one on my 1971 back in the day.
RRRRRAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWW!!!!.....shift.....RRRRRAAAAAAAWWWWWW....shift....repeat
I think it would be clever if we could make them sound like original Beetle exhausts
