We have been working with Vintage speed to try to put together a GB and we finally got numbers together. The catch, we need 25 units to make it happen. We will be bringing them over ocean freight, so the final numbers will be in shipping, but will be much cheaper than bringing in individually.
I have seen some of their work, and will have a sample prior to the shipment. I've been real happy with what I have seen so far, and think these would be a great option to the current options. Who's in? List is $693 without shipping https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kb07sMAJJ7s...eature=youtu.be Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I don't want to spend all the money on a beautifully welded stainless muffler and have to farm out welding an O2 bung on it. If it was included, it's a huge value add. At least to me. and a significant detail to state one way or another. Hence, the question.

At least to me. and a significant detail to state one way or another. Hence, the question. Very very few people request o2 bungs and if I included one with each muffler people would complain that they want a plug.. Best sampling is really the heat exchangers anyway.. I personally have sold thousands of mufflers over the years and can count on 1 hand how many want an o2 bung on the muffler.. Now when being built I can add the o2 bung to the build for $35 as Mark said. |

Thanks guys.
I suppose so. But I have on O2 bung on my triad and an AFR gauge in the car to help tune the carbs. And I REALLY want to go to FI at some point. Seems like more and more people are, or at least want to go this way. I should add that either the triad is getting loud or I'm getting old. Or both. Considering a different mufflah solution. Not just flapping my upper exhaust port. |

If anyone's interested, this is my Vintage Speed system – made to order to replicate tailpipe position of the Dansk I had previously fitted on my 2056/44IDF/SSI header combo. Came with two Lambda sensor bungs as stock, one each end. Quality and fit outstanding, far superior to the Dansk in every respect. Dansk too loud and raspy for my taste. On chassis dyno, power output identical at 130bhp on the nose, but VS much deeper, more mellow note and far less droning at speed.
![]() ![]() Here's the Dansk for comparison (with a similar VS muffler). ![]() |
