It "almost" looks like the Mittelmotor exhaust, except theirs is stainless.
But I think it is an Abarth muffler. Can you post a photo of the intakes? I think they are worth some $$$ (to someone who is looking for one). There was a thread on the Pelican 911 board about them! Mike Zois was looking for one! |

Hey...
I have one very similar to what's on the picture except for the shape of the flanges (being exposed in the picture). And it only fits the 2.0L....I'd like to know what brand or who makes 'em, too... |

See, this explains why I have a Fiat too. (Yeah, its a stretch but cut me some slack).
You see, Carlo Abarth (Aw-varth) modified Fiats AND Porsches. Most folks know about his work with Fiats, but few recall his work with Porsche. In fact, he did a really cool works 356, that had gill slits like a Mustang fastback. Very sweet. Molto veloce! - Joe |

hey cool makes me feel kinda lucky. So I havent seen an indetical one though, does this mean its been custom made or replicated? or is it extremely rare? Also how does it sound, and about how much extra acceleration an hp does it push out?

If it were yellow, it would make your car much faster.
Since it is "unusual" most of us probably can't tell you how it sounds. Horsepower gain = probably negligible. I mean if we tell you it wil give you maybe a 5% gain... it sounds pretty good, until you figure 5% of 76hp = 3.8 hp. That's probably an aggressive guesstimate. Acceleration factor = negligible Sound factor = probably "sounds" faster How about you hook it up and YOU answer the questions for US! |

It "looks" like a cleaned up Monza exhaust. They had the dubious honor of rusting faster than the Bursch......but it looks better built. A twelve pack and a Virgin....(if I can find one)...if you can tell me who made it.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) .
