Which muffler should I get?
 
I'm in the market for a dual in/single-out muffler for my 77 911 which has a stock 2.7 except for the thermo-reactor replacement headers (eventually I will replace those with SSI's).
I have been looking at the Dansk, Bursch, and Ansa mufflers. What is the difference between these mufflers? Any personal experiences people can share would be great.
Thanks!!

Had busrch and then an ansa, the bursch sounded really crappy (personal opinion) on my 3 liter with headers (like an old Harley), the ansa was more pleasing. In tend changed it for a B&B which sounds great but has required repairs 3 times already. Forget about calling B&B for repairs by the way

There you go, my 2 cents (actually more like 2 grand in mufllers!)

Gustaf, I have a 1976 2.7L stock and I replaced the thermal reactor headers with SSI's and installed a Dansk stock stainless steel 2 in 1 out muffler. I did gain a few horsepower with the SSI's. The muffler construction is very good. I bought it with the stock exhaust pipe diameter (about 2 inches). In retrospect, I think I should had bought the Dansk with the larger exhaust opening (3 inches) since it may provide a few more hp. The muffler I have is by no mean loud. In fact sometimes I wish it had a few more decibels of noise.

On a related question, here are a new old stock factory muffler (right) and a almost new Dansk (left). How come the HE flange sticks farther out on the Factory one?
