I just picked up a 1970 914-4 (my first) I trying to gather some general stuff to start the rebuild. I am looking for some sound options, and examples. I can weld and fabricate so I was thinking of making my own (i have done it before for other cars) but I am having some trouble finding some good references to what muffler or configuration would work best for these 914's.

It came with dual Webbers already on it, and what is on it seems louder then i would have expected but im looking for the old air cooled throtie sound...if that makes any sense. Obviously the 6's sound great but what options are out there for the 4's?

any help would be greatly appreciated.

P.S.

Also looking for shock/suspension options (looking to upgrade to coil overs to lower and firm up the stance, also looking for good front and back fiber glass bumpers as well.

My bad, I wasn't clear I want it loud. It was a good thing when it was louder then I thought. If I put a cage in it down the road the sound would resonate in the tubing anyway. This is going to be a Sunday/ auto cross type car. Hopefully down the road a track car. For right now I'm just looking to get it going and have some performance updates for it. I love the sound of the 6's but with it being a 4 I'm just looking for some sound options to try and get close to that sound.
