I have other plans for a muffler, but that will take time so I'm looking for a one season solution.

I have a rough banana, seems solid enough but the inlets need to be welded up.

2nd is a stainless steel very amateur build muffler, supposedly for a /6, but no way in hell is it going to fit my MSDS headers.
Lots of good bits, but it would need to be all cut up and re-welded and I bet I'll be short a few radius's.

Other than time which I short of, no problem TIG-ing it up.

Very healthy 3.0, webers, cams, hot street engine.

What one would you go with?

How about this, Mark

Shipping/border would likely kill the deal...and you know... I'm cheap

cut the banana open and make it into a sport muffler.

Just curious ... how does it work if someone drives a part (or parts) across the border (in their luggage)

Use the banana as is

Except, fix it until you can source the right thing. And quit being such a CASOB.

They will ask if you have anything to declare and this is where you should say yes and declare its value. You will be charged fees based on the value. This is what people should be doing...

Not cheap, frugal

Who gets to assess the value?

Good question... For an individual, just the fact that you would be declaring a used muffler would already show signs of good honest manner. They may just let you through.

I would say $50, pay the fee (probably less than $10) and go on. The hassle is more to go inside and do the paperwork... As with every customs, it depends on the officer and the attitude...

You can also bring gifts but they recommend not to wrap them because they will want to see it. Then there shouldn't be any fees. I'm no expert, just things I have experienced.

I will be launching a prototype shortly. You maybe a perfect candidate for it?

Well, for my 3.2 I converted the 911 muffler that came with the motor into a two in on out that looks like yours. Mig instead of tig and I hope to one day change but I also fly the cheap sob banner. Go for what drives.

Interested

Looked at the banana, it's fugly, but it only needs a patch around one inlet.
Other than that it's solid.
Would definitely be the fastest short term solution.

Well I got bad banana welded up and on, not happy, bet it will kill my flow, but it should work as a short term solution till I get something better.

Banana s are pretty decent flow wise.. You maybe suprised.

my research indicated that,apparently they are a very good mix of performance and noise output,I bought mine as an extra from the PO along with the custom headers he had built,he offered me a muffler converted to dual centre outlet but warned me about the noise...I passed.
I'am happy enough with my stocker,man they are heavy though....no way around that.

I did a Magnaflow, it was suggested by Knight Racing. Has a little drone, but sounds amazing. Might not be the best if your going to do alot of freeway, but its one of the best for performance. I think all in this was around $300 with a muffler shop doing the work.

This isn't my car, but I have the same setup. This guy had 253hp to the wheels from a 3.2 with 46mm pmo's and DC40 cams.

Well ... have you tried it out yet?

For years, Joe Sharp kept telling me that the bananas were a very well engineered muffler, both the 911 and 914(4) types, and that I should source one for my 914. I'm quite happy with the one I got from Glenn Sager several years ago - quieter than the Triad I had on there, but it provided me with a touch of back-pressure that I needed too.

Talking about ugly bananas ... how's this?
