Seen a couple different approaches for exhaust on V6 & V8 teeners. Gettin ready to fab a Y-pipe for the SHO motor going into the 914. Want to run single exhaust down the right side, muffler in stock position, and single tail pipe out the back-left.
Curious to see different approaches there are for routing exhaust above or below the axles. Post pics! Here's a picture of the 3.2L SHO motor.  TIA |

TIA I am also interested in the exhaust, but what are you going to do for the intake and filter? |

Great feedback guys, thanks. Above the axles it is. I wanted to keep the exhaust as close to the trunk as reasonable and was concerned about heat. I'll plan for some kind of shielding - similar to the stock muffler shield welded to the underside. That keeps it off the exhaust.
QUOTE(pdlightning @ Feb 13 2012, 09:38 PM) I am also interested in the exhaust, but what are you going to do for the intake and filter? pd, The intake will use the stock manifold as shown, fed by straight tubing from the rear of the trunk where a naca duct will draw intake air in. The MAF sensor will sit between the filter box, under the naca duct, and the throttle body. I'll also have to fab a metal or FG riser to the forward part of the trunk/engine lid to cover the exposed throttle body. |
