need a pic of an installed single inlet muffler

Hi There -

Bottom line: I want my 3.2 louder.

I have been contemplating cutting open the stock muffler and doing some gutting. I made a 2 in 2 out sport muffler for my 914-6 and loved it, but welding that double walled muffler casing was a b!tch. I am sure I never got all of the pin holes filled. Lots of work.

I know that the Bursch mufflers are considered lower end. My car is a fair weather driver, so I am not concerned about rust, and quite frankly, I love the simplicity of the design. However, it appears that the main muffler is really visible below the valance - but I am not sure by how much.

I went throught nearly the entire "butt's" thread, but I cant tell what it a bursch and what is custom in many cases.

Anyone have any pics of a 1 in - 1 out installed ?

Anyone ever remove the primary muffler and replace it with an additional glass back (like the older versions)?

Thanks -
Scott S

Scott,

Have you seen this guy's website? He has some pretty interesting exhaust ideas. You have to sniff around a little.

InstantG's Home Page

Also, in storage, I have a nice condition factory 3.2 muffler I gutted. My stock SC does not have the beans at the high rpm range to make it sound good. It's beautiful up to 5k then sounds boy racer. More noise than music. I don't have much in it so will let go cheap - would beat your investment of cutting up another one. Also ran it with an open by-pass pipe.

the dansk sport muffler is a good choice with a 3" out pipe, plenty loud and no drone with euro pre muffler

1 in 1 out

Here is my 1 in 1 custom sports muffler bought here at PP classified. It's loud but not so obnoxious and importantly I got it cheap. Rumbling sound on low RPM similar to a Subie STI (low bass tone) and throaty on 3500 up on a stock cat.




Size and weight is less half of the OEMs. I offered this for sale but decided to hold it until my new exhaust arrives. Maybe I can offer it thru the Muffler Loan Program soon

I was thinking of cutting the OEM muffler in the middle and make it a 1 in 2 wherein the out goes at the middle like the GT3 style M&K.

That is pretty slick - I love the simplicity. Please drop me a PM/voicemail when you get close to selling it.

Thanks!!

If you want louder try M&K 1in/1out with M&K pre-muffler. Really good sounds. Love the setup on my 3.2. Easy to install and they send you everything you need with free shipping.

delivered finally - FABSPEED Supercups

Almost a month after I ordered, its finally here. Too bad, I'll be leaving the country tonight and won't be able to install it. Looking forward on projects waiting for me on my April 25 return.





My apologies, I guess my test fit should be reversed.

I have a 1 in 2 out with a Fabspeed Muffler and bypass pipe in my 3.2 powered SC. It is loud, but it sounds great...!
