I'm fond of my Bursch. The car had a Manta on it when I bought it, but it fell off on the freeway one day. I don't miss it. The Bursch is better.

Im not sure he is offering the single anymore. If he is, go with that if its a stock car. The 2nd tip now points down. I would prefer semintry on the 2 tip. Just my 2 cents. My new bursch has already burned off some paint and has surface rust. In hindsite, I would of ordered one from them unpainted.

Hey Gurl! Can't go Bursch on this one..
For those who need to know again, euro 2.0/4, I am used to factory, so anything that sounds like that, or a 904.. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Dual? How long shipping? Triad dual? single? Abarth, Factory, Dansk, in that order, hurry! M |

Anyone have a symetrical dual sitting around waiting for a car that looks worse today, than it did last week? I am a buyer, today! M |

I've just got the triad dual, both tips out like a newer -6. It's a bit loud. The bursch is a bit more tame.
I'm thinking about sticking a bursch on for comparison reasons. |

How long did it take to get your's? 100db is fine, 98db is fine, anything under 105db is fine, 106db is not fine. M |

Thanks for the offer Chris, if I can get a Triad ordered in the next 24 hours though, I am going there.
I wish I could find one of those cool Abarth copys. M |

Ok, wait a second.. how loud is loud? It pops, right? No resonance like the big banana.. it's the one I heard that goes...
(D below a440) -sportscar leaves- .....GHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!...... It moves the torque up, yes? M |

Dude, dave at Triad is buuuuusssssy. I doubt you will get a muffler made up for you in the next few weeks. I hope I am wrong. It is a nice sounding muffler, but it is loud. Louder than stock, louder than bursch. Nice and quiet at idle tho. Seanery, have Miles call you and you can rev your motor for him like that new Cayanne commercial (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

IT'S A HEMI! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) Loud is ok, it's all about where the resonant note centers, and where be the torque at. Damnit! They should sell these things at Pep-Boys... M |
