Exhaust suggestions for a '74 Carrera

Hi Pelicans!
My new-to-me '74 currently has a Supertrapp muffler which is a bit racy for my taste.

What suggestions (and pictures!) do folks have for a replacement? I like the twin exit look (is that known as Rally-style?) and want to hear that beautiful engine sing, but prefer something a bit more period-correct.
Cheers, James

Over the years I've tried all sorts of mufflers. I'm tipping that you have ssi headers in a 2 out configuration. Dansk sports are good bit off a bark my father has one on his 2.7. Monty are good if you like that raspy note and made here down under. I run cargraphic sport which I consider the best quality and very toned in terms of noise, m&k very loud but lots of thumbs up on the note, so ......... It depends what ur after.

Thanks RLt, this is my header setup:

The car is just used as a fun runaround/track car so I'm not concerned about noise/drone as long as the muffler isn't so loud it'll likely break circuit noise restrictions.

This is probably something you should discuss with your engine builder, as MFI can be pretty sensitive to changes in exhaust back pressure. There is plenty of reading here on the subject.
For example:
MFI flat spot fixed - it was the freakin' "sport" muffler...
