Sorry....but generally considered too be the worst exhaust you could put on a 914. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Or Ansa. The tips look nice. Usually the bottom edges are ground down.

Well, 1st congratulations on your acquisition.
Triad has been one of the better exhausts you can put on the 4. Dave makes these from time to time and you can find them in classifieds every so often. If it's not rusted out, drive it til you can get a better option. Enjoy the car! Interestingly enough the trapezoid flange may indicate an upgrade to a 2.0? Or al least the heat exchangers |

Or al least the heat exchangers Thanks for the input. The heat exchangers were replaced not too long ago. I thought I had a real cool system. Not so much I guess. Add it to the list of stuff to eventually replace. Ray |
