So who here has hacked up a muffler for their car? I have the strange desire to make something custom for my car, and toss the monza that's on it now. I remember seeing a couple posts fromma while ago about someone taking a banana-type (don't recall if it was Bursch or whatzitwas) but the guy cut 2 holes in it and welded on some tips from like Pep boys or something. He actually did a nice job of it too - looked like a 911 style.
I would like to try something similar, maybe like a boxter style (with the tips closer together)- I'll be bored this winter, and seein's how all the big projects are done, I'll have time to sit around and really ruin something up good. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Anyone remember or have pics/links? Or recommendations? Laugh at me? Cheer me on? Send me cash? |

They are different on the inside.. but only the size of the holes in the baffle plates (911 is larger) All you are doing is allowing the exhaust to exit prior to entering the last chamber when you do the "sport" mod. They have a "Rallye" mod also where the tips are farther out and access the chamber later than the sport. This is typically a tad quieter than the sport. You can see in Eric's pics where the vertical baffle plates are located (see spot welds)...
Pretty easy mod. The 2.0 4 cyl sounds "ok" at best when that lower chamber is opened up. B |
