With a 2.0 /4 ... Is there any options for getting the look (without sacrificing performance) of the dual exhaust like you see on the factory /6 and in particular the factory GT cars? I thought Dansk had an offering for this, but can not locate it now. Basically I'm after the look of separated tips coming straight out, but not really close together (like boxster, etc). Don't need chrome tips.
I'm always confused why you see the 1.7s with dual tip ansa mufflers (I don't want duals on both side for my 2.0) , but the 2.0L cars always get a single tip. Also, I see there are some "GT" style mufflers for /6 cars... but then there are size differences amongst the /6s, could none of them be used on a 2056cc type IV based on a stock 2L ? Any other options? |

6 and 4 heat exchanger flanges are completely dif. Does anyone have a diagram/drawing depicting the dimensions of the early /6 muffler flange, HE's (up to '74 are apparently the same)? I have found a diagram showing the different dimensions between 1.7,1.8 & 2.0 4 cylinder HE's. ..The muffler for a 4 you decide upon must be compatible with the heat exchangers on your car. It's all about the heat exchangers. So, in your opinion.. would you say that as long as the engine's displacements are similar (the 2056 /4 and a stock early /6 both being 2.0L essentially), that whether they're a /4 or /6, makes no difference, as long as the HE's line up to the muffler of choice? So, for instance my options may be to use a dual tipped sport muffler meant for a 1.7/1.8 (if they exist) on my 2.0L based 2056 IF using 1.7/1.8 HE's on my 2L? ...or using a dual tipped sport muffler for an early /6 as long as my heat exchanger flanges were altered to match up to that muffler? |
