So, I have a 73 2.0. it has stainless heat exchangers on it. looks like they are 1.7 pipes. I bought a new rear bracket (2.0) and it does not fit. looking at pictures in the books I have it appears I have 1.7 exhaust. did these come stainless from Porsche?
I have a stock 1.7 muffler on it, is bursch the way to go? I would rather retain heat as this will be a year round street car (mabye daily). but what are the options. so whats out there and whats worth owning. I saw one setup that was 2k for headers and mufflers w/a heat exchanger on one side. Very nice but way out of budget. As a side not anyone need a brand new 2.0 rear exhaust hanger. I paid 40, take 20. It is new from AA. I happened to be in Atlanta and stopped by. you guys are right, rude , condecending, and what a dump. I would gladly trade for a 1.7 in servicable shape. |

In regards to SS. Otto's in Venice say's they're all junk. The mounting flanges are too thin. "It's like trying to bolt down a gum wrapper". The guy has 30 years of experience with racing Porsches. I believe him. Better off with OEM.
