Hey guys, this is something of a continuation thread of these last two threads.
http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=76498 http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=76175 The eurorace header showed up today! YES!!! Here is a pic of it sitting in the garage somewhat assembled. Now I have a couple questions: 1: Do I use only new copper gaskets? 2: Is there a specific procedure to preparing the gaskets prior to install? 3: Should I use those copper nuts or just double nut the stub pipes to the exhaust ports? 4: Should I do a little dance after putting it all on without any pulled studs? I'll post a pic of the dual motorcycle exhaust once I launch my other computer. If Jake signs in....how much will this help my engine over that dual motorcycle exhaust? Attached thumbnail(s) |

No annealing necessary, just install and retighten them after a few minutes of run time.
The Type 4 is all about exhaust- period. Dual mufflers and crazy half assed hodge podge backyard excuses are what make for untunable engines and catastrophic failures. Every time I see a TIV without a collector, running dual mufflers with an owner that believes "it's OK" it makes me want to go ballistic! |
