Interested in changing my Bursch for something that might give a little better sound.
Anyone in GGR LPR have one that I might be able to hear? On a 2.0L.
How do you like them? What about workmanship and longevity? Worth the increased cost over the Bursch?

Get my billet hubs on Saturday....yippeeeeee (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/clap.gif)

I don't have one, the last one I heard was leave my shop headed for Washington state. (Hi Brad! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wavey.gif)) I think they're one of the nicest sounding exhaust systems out there.

I'm less like GGR LPR... more like OKC, OK. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

But nevertheless, here's my TRIAD summation...

Workmanship: solid 10+

Longevity: mine's 3 years old... still sounds "new".

And friends today say "that sounds BAD!"

Worth the cost: Damn straight! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

When I purchased mine, Dave (Triad), said he was leaving the country and it would be another ten days before he could ship. Got an email the next day said he stayed up all night to fab, paint, package and ship and that it was on it's way!

And weeks later he asked if everything was okay.

As far as I'm concerned, he's a 914 brother.

They are somewhat "heavy". I have a lightweight "stubby" performance exhaust (sounds horrible unless it's WOT), that is 10# compared to the the Triads 20#. But for my purposes (AX), I think the Triad makes up for it's weight in better lower end grunt (torque). If I were doing "track" , I'd probably opt'd for something more free flowing. But for street... nothing sounds as good as that Triad! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif)

Bought my traid about a year ago. Great worksmanship. Sounds awesome. I cut valance to fit the double exhaust. The only reason to do another exhaust is if you want headers and no heat.
