With every exhaust I build, I stamp a serial number on the left flange. Yesterday, I shipped TW 400 which is a milestone for me and Triad.
The exhausts measures 47" tip to tip. That equals 1566.6 lineal feet if lined up tip to tip. The Empire State Building is 1454 ft. to the tip. Shipping box is 52x12x11 inches. That is 3 1/3 semi-truck loads. Shipping weight is roughly 28 lbs., so, x 400=11,200 lbs. I bought Triad in 2002...16 years ago. that works out to be 2 per month, or 25 per yr.. I want to thank everybody that made this possible! I am working on a light weight (made out of styrofoam and painted) for the up-coming electric cars, just because they look like something is missing. |

Just bought one for my 1971 1.7L . I could not be happier. Nice job, nice price and a nice guy! I like to see people succeed in what they enjoy doing. Keep it up.
Cheers! |

Mine was a milestone from a few years ago now. Sadly now sold because of the six conversion - but I enjoyed it whilst I had it.

Working on getting a project car and if it comes through, a Triad is on the list - looks like great stuff. Congratulations on the milestone.

I currently have 3 of these mufflers. 2 on 914-6 cars and 1 on the 911 you see in the pic. Of course, the very first one, (on the track car) has no serial number. |

Mine didn't either. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/hissyfit.gif) I hear the early ones are becoming collector's items like the pre-A 356s. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)
Regardless I still think these are the best exhaust available for the 4-cyl cars. Great sound and I picked up midrange torque when I installed it on my car. Haven't tried one on the -6 yet.... yet. |
