Does anyone have any knowledge of a Tri-Mil muffler for a 914-6/911 application? My recent 914-6 project has one, but I've never heard of one on a 6 cyl. Mostly just on VW applications.

Originally founded (1960's) by Joe Miller, Tri-Mil Co. in Compton, Calif. Known for T-1 VW muffler mfg.
Moved to Gardena, Calif., company sold off (after Joe's passing) and is now in the ownership of another VW aftermarket Co.
Your system is designed just like a Bursch, as the orig owner was big on knocking off Bursch...therefore the similarity. Only problem on your 9146 is the Tri-Mil uses too small of a muffler ; they just stuck the T-1 VW (restrictive) muffler on the 911 system and called it a day.
Try to source a turbo-style muffler with an i.d. of (min) 2.250", and swap it onto that extractor...and you will be OK !
