hello everyone
looking for a little guidence before i take off my old exhaust. Bought this bursch one used and just want to ask a couple of questions before i get into wrenching. as per the photos it looks to me the bolts are part of the old exhaust and if that is so then presumably I need the bolts and nuts to put on the bursch??? Is there a recommended set of hardware that i need to purchase? Attached thumbnail(s) |

The Bursch system you have, with the three bolt flanged connection for the muffler, allowed you to change the muffler type: either a cherry-bomb style, quiet turbo style, or a straight through stinger pipe. I have this Bursch combination with the bolt on quiet turbo muffler. A lot of people don't like the Bursch systems, but a lot of people have used them. I used mine for years and found it to be acceptable. Most of the Bursch 914 systems you see are welded one piece systems with the quiet turbo muffler, which cost less than the bolted flanged systems.
Bursch used to sell these combinations. Their web site doesn't show them currently, but you could probably call them and ask if they could provide a bolt on turbo muffler for your collector if you find the cherry-bomb type muffler to be too loud. http://burschexhaust.com/4cylinder.htm |
