My new to me /6 engine will be here tomorrow (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Now I need headers and muffler of some sort. What are you using? I was thinking of using a set of megaphones, but would that be to loud? I will be AXing the car so while I really don't care how loud I want to make sure I can keep it under 110db.
Thanks |

While straight thru exhaust and mufflers look mean and nasty...it's my experience...and I DO have some....that a little back pressure is a good thing. Megaphones....mind numblying LOUD.....so loud that it will penetrate earplugs and a helmet.....
I also find cross over is good for smoothness as well. Porsche isn't stupid....the heat exhangers are well engineered for up to 3.0s and the stock dual in banna muff can be modified to a sport configuration. I've experimented with most flat six motors from 2.0 up to 3.6s....both carbed and injected.....I've used straight zoomies and then added gradually restricted muffs....and crossovers....you of course can duplicate my efforts but my seat of the pants dyno tells me what has worked. I even use sport cats as premufflers and it helps both the tuneability and the emissions at the tail pipe. Attached thumbnail(s) |
