The Triad I have is just too loud for me. It has a cool look with an original style, but I'm not enjoying the car when I go for anything but a short ride. None of my neighbors have complained. I've asked them about it just to be sure. Living in a condo community where I already bend the rules a bit is a balance.

So I've got the car going into a specialty shop near my house. The guy that runs it has decades of muffler work and tells me about all the 911 stuff he's engineered. He likes my Triad headers although he's planning on doing some adjustments to them. They don't hang at the exact height and he's going to even them out. It will be a fix that you can't see from the top of the car, but it will look correct when I'm working under it.

The plan is to make a tube that joins the to headers and enters a 30" muffler on the passenger side. The muffler will be tucked up high in the body and a single pipe will exit on the drivers side hanging just below the valance. The idea is nothing will be hanging out and the pipe will barely be seen. The muffler won't be Weldon in place so it may be removed easily.

If your looking for a loud set of pipes, they'll be up for sale when it's all done.

More to report next week when it goes into the shop
