looking for suggestions for exhaust systems to eliminate the VW clanger noise from the 914. What have you done and how do you like the results.

It's loud and I run a little rich so its always popin, but I like that... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) At about 16 sec you can hear how it sounds as I drive by... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH3Pg1cG-Ro But I picked up a 911 banana muffler that I'm going to chop up and build into an RSR style muffler and see how that goes. |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Except for the tangerine I find every dual tip is too loud. The Tangerine (customers) has a nice rumble, but is actually a very quiet exhaust...for an aircooled. No problem talking to your passenger or listening to the stereo with it at highway speed, even with the roof off. |
