Working out installing a msds T4 header and am considering muffler options. My first choice was to attach a flowmaster to the end of the collector and add a tail pipe....header exits on the driver's side.
It is turning out there may not be enough room since the header collector and reducer put the flange out near the end of the trans. I can route the pipe and muffler across the back and exit the passenger's side but then I need to change my valance. I think curving the pipe back to the driver's side will be tight; and hard to find a shop to spend the time. I remember seeing some kind of 911 muffler, banana type, that had the inlet and exit on the same side. Was that a custom job? Are they effective? Has anyone done this setup? How do you mount the muffler? |

I don't see why not they are a pretty good design,without seeing your system you could have some clearance issues so some work may be required there.
Upside....easier to find than the dual inlet (cheaper),should give a nice exhaust note also Downsides.....they are very heavy and will need good support,perhaps the stock support bracket may need beefing up and modified more like the bracket on the 911 then you could use those 911 clamps. Renspeed (i think) have the clamps in stainless....very good quality bought a set last month. |
