Bursch Muffler anyone?

[robotman]

Has anybody put a Bursch muffler in place of there stock unit on a 2.7 here?
Any sound clips or input please.

Their paint is ****.

It could use some ceramic coating I'll admit, but it sounds pretty sweet. I'd say it sounds like a deep tone at 9-1100 rpm and from there it starts growling till about 4000 rpm then it wails a bit. Guy down the street with a 3.6 swap into his sc loves the sound of mine. his has a magnaflow I thinkl.

Here is a clip of my 1973 with an '86 3.2 with the 1973's SSI's and Bursch muffler.

Had one on my 2.2, years ago.. I liked it.. I thought it was good value for the money..

I had one on my 2.2 and it was so damn loud that I swapped back to stock as soon as I found a decent deal on the classifieds. If you want my old one, it is for sale. PM with your email and I'll send pics to you. And yeah, Quattorunner has it right, at high rpms it WHAAAAILED. I actually did get some compliments from other p-car owners on it. But no sound clips to share, sorry.

What a bunch of bunk

Here's my lowly 2.7 with a bursch muffler (one of the few aftermarket companies that tune their mufflers on a dyno)

I'm selling it too - but only because it won't fit on my new to me 3.6

If you had any welding skills it would fit.....

[efhughes3]

I never made a statement about sound or quality, except their paint, which literally flaked off the first time I ran my new (at the time) muffler. Took it off, blasted it, painted with heat paint & ran it 'til I went to headers.

i just came across some ssi' and bursch exhaust for my supercharger and i must say when i heard it on a 3.2 chipped it sounded baaaaaaaad lets just say i bought it right on the spot WOW, i have a borla turbo exhaust on my 3.2 but the ssi bursch combo sounds way better,


esully did you tune the car (chip)

[JeremyD]

I repainted mine too - but usually got compliments on how it sounded.

Not sure why Bursch got a bad rep - if you look at the stainless OBX stuff on ebay - you'll see that they copied their design.

What gets me is some of these exhaust companies that claim HP increases (yep even the stainless high dollar ones)- but good luck getting any real dyno results - yet bursh actually developed theirs on a dyno -

Sorry - just a little cranky today.

Ok i may feel a little better about this. So is there any welding to be done or special fitting or does it bolt right up to my 2.7?

Bolted right up on my 2.7. As that was 25 years ago YMMV. Personally I love the sounds it makes with the 2.7.

[robotman]

I was looking at the M & K mufflers for single in single out but pricey. do you guys think it is even worth it, is there a big difference in sound when paying almost double.

here's a link to a 2.7 with M&K's... not mine but love the sound..

Stock 3.2 with 3,000 miles on a top end rebuild.

[robotman]

From the sound clips and the economical pricing i am going with the Bursch.
Allot of good info thanks guys.
