Hi All,
My old Bursch exhaust for my 73 2.0 4 cylinder. The old one finally gave out and I have always really liked it. I see there is an old one for sale here already. Anyone know where I can get a new one or like-new one?
Thanks,
Russ

If the piping is still sound, the muffler is easily replaced. Substantial savings+0 shipping $.

Thanks Clark. I saw that. Unfortunately that one is for a six cylinder.

Interesting. Yes it is the main muffler part that has a hole and loose parts inside. You think most muffler shops can fix?

Or you should try Dave’s Triad muffler.

I think I have a NOS 2.0 Bursch, but shipping to California will be spendy

How much do you want for it? How much you think for shipping?

When I had a Bursch I had a local shop weld on a Magnaflow muffler from Summit Racing to replace the original. Not expensive, looked good and had a great sound.

You could get one of ours. They are a little more expensive since they are handmade in USA from high quality stainless but you won’t have to buy a replacement every couple years. Available in side exit or dual rear exit.

How much are these? How’s the sound?

$595
I linked a sound clip but a muffler will not sound the same on different cars. A fuel injected car sounds different than a car with carbs, etc. The single side out will also be a bit quieter than the dual out.
These are also much lighter than stock or aftermarket.

https://youtu.be/E_9CVVIsij0Sounds good. I think I'd want the single out. Pipe is on the left, correct? How do I place an order?

Interesting, I just got a replacement Muffler only about 6 months ago. They have a life time warranty. I worked with them just to send me the muffler only and it cost me around 50 bucks to keep my old one. They refub the tips, or that's what I was told

I emailed them and left a VM, will let you know what they say.

I have a new bursch, at least I think it's a bursch.
It's for a 1.7 or 1.8 heater boxes, make sure you get the correct one for your heater boxes, the 2.0 version will not fit the 1.7/1.8 and vice versa.
It's on my wife's 914 but it hasn't been fired up, I also cut off the old tip and welded on a much nicer SS tip. I replaced the tip because the old tip wasn't centered correctly on the rear valance and it looked sucky. I believe this is old stock, maybe even 80's vintage.
I'd be willing to sell it because I have another bursch that's only been on a car for a short period. The 2nd one has surface rust and I would also be willing to sell this one (less money of course), I just need one or the other.
PM me if interested.

I bought a new muffler from 914Werk, but it had some storage scratches. Here is the original pic plus the new connecting pipe...
Note, I painted the muffler with matching high temp black paint and will add a pic tomorrow.
I ended up going with the stock 75 setup

FWIW, I bought a Bursch brand new in the late 80s and it came straight out of the shipping box looking worse than that one. I think the paint they used on those things was pretty crappy.
