That sound for 40$ !?!?!? I'll take it any day...........

I just took it for a drive with the wifey. It sounds so sick. Not loud like a race car but a very nice rumble. Even the wifey said it sounds good. I did some slow runs and an interstate run and I can't believe how little drone there is, virtually non-existent.

if the wife likes it, you've got it made!!

$25? Are you kidding me? Wow what a deal! I pay that much for the FLANGE!

By the way, that looks just like the stock-exit-zork I made custom for a guy. Right down to the O2 bung. His was 321 stainless though. Cost was around $500.

It does look very familiar.

I bought this pipe on ebay a little over a year ago and just got around to doing something with it. The guy had it custum built and couldn't take the noise. He toyed with putting a muffler where you see the slanted weld, that's where he cut it...crooked. I decided to try putting a header collector auger insert in to see how it would sound. I figured for the money I have in it I can't really lose. I welded it back together with my mig using stainless wire. I also welded the bung on. Don't worry anyone, I know how to mig weld so it won't fall apart. ;)

Convergant evolution. The one I made was less than a year ago.
It doesn't take too much to remove the edge off the noise but, as you know, you've got to watch disrupting the flow or it'll cost you power.
I've sold a few "track" systems that were placed on street cars and then quickly pulled back off due to the noise level. It's fun and a novalty at first but living with the dB level long term can be a challenge. No more than you have in that setup it can be pulled off and on at will, great find!

Wasn't this one? To bad transportation company didn't pay attention to detail and bend it ......:mad:

Holy crap! What happened? Looks like they got your turbo sump as well.
I hate to ask if they were properly insured and did right by you.
Yes, that was actually the first 934 wastegate pipe I sold. The second generation version is modular and has the tailpipe as a separate piece. You can cut the pipe you have and replace the tailpipe section if you wish. The zork looks like toast. Shoot me an e-mail and I will work something out with you on the replacement parts.

Holy Jeezus! I drove it today and revved it up in the garage at work!!! It sounded like a friggin race car in there. One of my colleagues (owns an e46 M3) was laughing like a little kid. Then I left the garage and it was perfect again. I just went for a drive again a few minutes ago because I just wanted to hear it again.

Sounds great Mark!
But where is the LOUD popping and the flames man?

IDGAF27, I shudder did you knot their head :mad:

Mark , I know it's stupid question, but.........might you consider selling it?:rolleyes: I have some change to spare...............:D




Sorry for highjacking thread at first.
I wanna to take drivers head off and put it up to his a$$:mad:, but...... I got them by the wallet........At least have spare change to solve problem.

The loud popping is there when I quickly let off the gas or decel from high rpm's, blap, blap, blap. :D I have no way of seeing if any flames are shooting, I doubt it though.

Sorry, I love this thing too much. ;)

Gosh brian we could make those pretty easily

Please do...........I have change to spare:D

Do I get a royalty? :D ;)

I just finished putting my stock exhaust back on for CA smog testing :(

Started it up and the dam thing sounds like a 1600cc VW!
Going from a Zork to stock is a real shocker.
