Just purchased a stock 1974-4 2.0. I simply want to add a new muffler system to make it louder and sound more aggressive. Which one is the loudest? Which one has the best tone?
I am looking at the following: https://www.pelicanparts.com/More_Info/PELS...PkaAp6BEALw_wcB https://www.pelicanparts.com/catalog/SuperC..._EXHPRF_pg1.htm https://www.ecklers.com/porsche/1973-1974-p...YAaAopWEALw_wcB |

Add noticeably? Like how much for a stock 2.0?

QUOTE(troth @ Jun 16 2018, 10:33 AM) I imagine Chris can make a muffler as loud as you want but I have Mike Hydes old tangerine header and muffler hanging on the wall here and it wasn't loud at all. It sounded beefy, incredible tone up close but from 50 yards you could hardly hear it. My bug (T4 914 engine conversion) has a magnaflow that sounds like an open header, the drone drives me crazy and on a long haul hurts my ears enough I wear plugs. You can hear my bug engine from almost a mile away, I have to lug at 2K rpm through my village. I'm going to replace it soon when I have the time and coin. BTW it's hanging on the wall because Mike smoked his engine and I bought his car, I just haven't found a proper home for it yet.

A quality header is the the only true bolt on HP. 10hp on a 2.0 sounds about right, I appreciate that Chris doesn't embellish his performance claims, but at the same time a 10% increase is a huge gain. |
