is it possible to replace just the muffler?. If so, what source have you guy's used for a new Muffler.

I'm not a big fan of Bursch. Good price and loud. Doubtful if any power improvement over a stock muffler, which I prefer.

Call Dave at GPR 800-867-4712 and get a Dansk 2.0 muffler. Yes it isn't cheap, but will last a long time and have stock apperance.

yes, you can replace just the muffler and spend $50 to $75 unless the 2 millionaires that posted above would like to make a donation biggrin.gif

a muffler shop ought be able to look a the current muffler and find something in his book....a "turbo" muffler as used on V8's would work....

Don't forget to spray with paint that burns off after a couple of runs! blink.gif

They where good suggestions but out of my price range.

I lookesd on Summit racing's web site and all of their mufflers where to wide. Mine measures 8.5 in width, I couldn't find anything less than 9.75, that will be too wide to fit.

If you can't find just a replacement muffler to bolt in, I would also highly recommend the Triad muffler. They are less than $400, they DO add power, sound great, and last for a long time. Not made of regular thin muffler materials. Nice thick walls on the glasspack pieces and piping.

Get an aluminized glass pack and weld it in. Or go to a muffler shop and have them weld it in. Last time that only cost me $60 and 15 minutes smile.gif

I thought about the glass pack but wasn't sure if it would work. It would definitly fit.

How do they sound??

Sounds about like 90db laugh.gif

Not really, but the sound is nice. I like it. Make sure they have the tip out past the rear bumper though, otherwise you'll get alot of resonance throughout the body and in the cabin. When I welded mine myself, I didn't quite accommodate for that and ... well ... let's just say I need earplugs at 5500 rpms. blink.gif

What I find funny is this, I race motocross and we (MXer's) spend $500-1000 for a single cylinder exhaust system year after year. Then I see people spending the same amount (or less) for a new performance exhaust for their 914's being referred to as "millionaires".
I guess my point is that I'm considering replacing the Monza system that came with my car, and keep thinking these various systems are a bargain....LOL. blink.gif

Happy to get you two together...

Glad you will be able to use the muffler....are you modding it in some way? Of course you are biggrin.gif

IMHO, Mike's project is ambitious but a good one. Turbo's add lots of plumbing. At least there is room under there. Can't wait to see the results. clap56.gif
