More ways to pi$$ off the whine and cheese crowd.....
 
OK....the mid engine 914 headers did not work....they leaked, ran too low, I smacked them on a speed bump......

So.....I got a VW bus motor that had a Type IV engine it.....stole/borrowed the heat exchangers......busted out my trusty sawzall and got rid of the pesky tin covers and threw them on.....

Damn, Mike! I loved that old exhaust setup. Especially before you bent the muffler. It looked awesome sticking straight out.

Does it sound better or worse than before?

island911 07-10-2003 05:43 PM

Much more subtle.
It seems that if you want to piss-off the wine &cheesers, you need to make them laugh.
The 914 badge is a good start, but. . .

Gotta go to a muff welder.....these heat exchangers save me four inches on ground clearance.

greenmonster 07-10-2003 06:21 PM

Looks good. So that's what my bus heat exchangers look like on the inside :)

Doug Zielke 07-10-2003 06:26 PM

Honestly, Mike, I liked the "dingus" much better.

Joe Bob 07-10-2003 06:28 PM

Mike,
They look good to me but did you put them on with wing nuts just in case?
:p

greenmonster 07-10-2003 06:37 PM

Mike, they make headers (j pipes) for the type4 motor, but you can probably just have a muffler shop cut off the flanges that attach to the heads and weld up a complete exaust system from there for cheap.

Is the Lic plate for real? (HYSTERICAL VEHICLE)

Never mind I just saw the first picture.

Mike, you are a sick, twisted individual.

Any way you can retrofit a stinger onto that? Or how about some shotguns? I seem to recall having those on my dad's dune buggy...

And while you're at it, mount an external oil cooler on the rear of the roof.

Nope....the accusump and the oil cooler are going in the nose....

Twin super trapps out the arse seem to the way to go.....stay tuned, same bat time, same bat channel.....

How you gonna fit a duck tail on that little deck lid?
Ya gotta do it.

Joe Bob 07-10-2003 09:19 PM

Does someone make one??????
:D

sammyg2 07-10-2003 09:24 PM

Shouldn't be that hard, we can make one out of wood or foam or something and then make a mold, fiberglass isn't tough to work with.
Of course it would be easier to buy one.....

ZAMIRZ 07-10-2003 09:31 PM

mike, that setup is going to sound tits. The twin supertrapps will look nice pointing straight back, might I suggest you angle them up slightly to give the car an even more serious hot rod feel.

Joe Bob 07-10-2003 09:38 PM

Hmmmm, can some photo shop a Duck'sass on this?
