Fitting SSi's/Dansk 2 in 2 out to a 3.2 Carrera
Fitted the SSi's at the weekend - no real problems/difficulty at all. However on fitting the Dansk 2 in - 2 out, a problem has developed.
Basically the seam that runs round the silencer joining the 2 havles together is clashing with the lower pully casing. I have tried 'folding' the seam where its touching but this is not working - still not enough clearance. Today I am planning to remove part of the seam where required tho clear the casing and weld the silencer halves back together. Has anyone else had this problem |

Had the same problem when I went to install my Dansk 2-in 1-out muffler to my 3.2 with SSI's. I ended up measuring the width I needed to clear the pulley cover and then beat the seam down flat. Worked for me. Later I discovered that apparently I had a Dansk muffler for an early 911 and that the proper muffler for the 3.2 already has the material cut away to clear the puller cover.

Kurt - that sounds spot on - tried beating it flat but stainless is not the most ductile so I will go ahead with the cut/weld.

Kurt - A bloke on the night shift say's he will cut/weld it no problem - think I'll let him run with it - if he cannot get it completed by the weekend - I will try the heating method.
