I'm trying to decide what to replace my current stock 2.0 (and rusted with holes) muffler with. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sawzall-smiley.gif)
I'm considering a Bursch--I listened to one and it sounded pretty good. I'm also considering the Triad and Tangerine exhaust systems. If there are any SoCal teeners who would be willing to let me come by and take a look/listen, I'd really appreciate it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I'm trying to balance performance, sound (prefer not too loud yet nice aggressive note), and cost. BTW I bought my first 914 last week--a black '74 2.0--and I'm stoked!!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Eugene |

are just looking for muffer?? or the entire exhaust??
Tangerine makes headers and a muffler for it, not sure he makes a replacement muffler to be bolted to your heat exchangers...( I seriously doubt it) Triad makes a header as well as a seperate bolt-on 2.0 replacement muffler "all" of the headers sound great with just a simple "street" muffler...but I'm guessing you are just looking for muffler, not an "exhaust" system..I have a European Racing header with street muffler and it's sweeeet sounding (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I've never heard a Triad muffler but I have read good things about them...the Bursch muffler sounds pretty decent I think..... |

Thanks for the response. I'm looking for a muffler but I'm willing to install headers or SSI heat exchangers if I thought it was worth it. I communicated with Chris at Tangerine and he said that his mufflers can only be used with his headers. Part of my problem is that I've never heard an exhaust system with headers and street muffler on a 914. I've only heard a stock exhaust, a Bursch, and my muffler with a hole in it! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I've read through the archives pretty extensively and think I have a reasonably good understanding about how to improve performance through exhaust mods--either use SSI heat exchangers or headers with performance muffler such as a Triad, Tangerine, etc. Even though I want to improve performance, I would be willing to stay with my stock heat exchangers and a stock-comparable muffler such as a Bursch if I thought that a performance setup was too loud. Since my 2.0 is stock, ideally I'd like to meet some local 914 owners with stock 2.0 engine but upgraded exhaust so I can get an idea of the derived performance boost. |
