I've learned during my pursuit of a similar muffler for my 83SC with SSIs, that "Stainless Steel" and "inexpensive" are somewhat mutually exclusive. - - Even used ones. Good luck!

Yes -- Call Pelican Parts!

They can get the Dansk SS mufflers, look and sound great. Not "cheap" but hey, it's a Porsche...

List on the Danske is $799. I got mine for a lot better price from Pelican....

One other way if you do not mind regular steel. Have a muffler shop use two flowmaster mufflers, have the pipes do a 90 degree bend, add the muffler back to back, add a cross over and exit the opposite side(s). I did that on my 3.0 and they sounded great...about $250...including labor.

MikeZ - you got pictures of that setup?

Isolon - for $100 you can purchase a pre-74 hotdog muffler and modify it yourself for dual outletts.

Rarly just loves those fabrication posts.

I'd be interested to see that Flowmaster gig as well.

Does that setup drone/resonate at all (like those bad-boy 5.0 Mustangs)? Mustang- that's taboo around here.

Click the link above. The muff work was on my 914/6 with the euro 3.0 with headers and 964 cams. I tried a few combos including straight zoomies one time...but it liked a little back pressure the best.

The flowmasters worked the best...I was going to do it on my 911 euro cab as well....same motor and such, but I got too good deal on the Danske, I could not pass it up.

It's the pics all the way down on the bottom of the page....I used Power Tone tips as well. It sounded mean, no resonance. The best part was the three gear burnouts. Sorry, but the pic is pre cross over. I put it in later and it evened out the tone a bit more. I was getting some popping on de-cell.

Mike,

That setup rocks! Where do the pipes cross over now (not pictured, I know)? Under the transaxle?

Three gear burnouts. That's what I like to hear.

Thanks for the link.

It crosses over just behind the first muffler and after the headers.

Mike - I've seen these pix before, didn't know that was your ride. Very nice!

That muffler setup is as I imagined. Probably sounds real good!

I am working on yet another exhaust setup right now that falls along similar lines. I bought an aftermarket muffler used for modified Buick Regal Turbos. One muffler body with 2 inlets and 2 outlets for dual exhaust. I need to open it up and do some mild mods for proper flow before installing it. Should be a very simple setup, a lot of freedom in the tailpipe location department. Just don't know how loud it will be.

Hey Rarly. I have been looking at Edelbrock RPM series mufflers in a summit catalog. 3" stainless for a little over $100. They advertise a higher flow than a 2 out B&B. I bet it's a little loud, but probably would shoot nice flames from a turbo motor.

Someone mentioned modifying the muffler myself on a pre 74 hotdog. What the heck is a hot dog? What do the internals of the muffler look like? Can I take my stock muffler and have a shop add a second outlet? Doesn't seem like it. Anyone know? Like to do it quick because i have a rear RS fiberglass bumper i'm going to paint. It has no cut outs and i want to do it before i bring it in.
thanks

A "hot dog" is the stock oem muffler, also known as a banana style. Pelican has pics...the Danske is the same shape. The early muffs, were "sporterized" (gutted inside) and the outlets exited under the license plate and they welded the old one up OR in some cases put a cap over it.

The dual outlets can be loud. So on the street the duals were capped and on the track the single was capped.

No reason you can't do it to yours...but you might not like the way it sounds....

I also tried a B&B, and a Borla....both over the sound limits of the track as well as the sporterized one I got with my SSI heat exchangers....

So make yer choices....

To RarlyL8...thanks, I put a lot of work into that car, it nows lives with it's new owner out in Santa Clarita CA....my 911 cab sits in it's place in the garage...I miss it, but I also like having heat, cruise control, electric windows and other creature comforts invented in the last 20 years...

Since the operative word here is cheap. Why not try a crossflow "Flowmaster" or other crossflow muffler for American cars Camaro, Firebird Buick GN all used that design. SS mandrel bent U tubing can be purchased relativly cheaply, get or make some flanges from ss stock, any good welding or muffler shop can do the fabrication. nice tips will be the hardest part, or go for the race look with the sliced ss pipe.
