I have a 2.0 liter motor, believe to be stock configuration, 73 or 74 model year D-Jet)
I have two options of exhaust systems available to me. What would be best of these two options? Also reason(s) why one option is better or not. What do you all know? option 1..... Stainless steel 1.7/1.8 heat exchangers (the ones that kick upwards prior to the muffler) along with an aftermarket bursch pipes and muffler. option 2..... Stainless steel 2.0 heat exchangers (the ones that go straingt into the muffler) and a stock 73/74 2.0 liter Muffler. The Bursche pipes and muffler weight is 15 lbs, the big rounded stock 2.0 muffler wieght is 24 lbs. There is no significant weight difference betweent he heat exchangers. The Bursch pipes are a 4 into 2 into 1 system. (as opposed to 4 into 1 system). So what is the best choice in this application? Trade offs? and why? thanks for your inputs! dave |
