Hi All -
My car has 1.7l stainless heat exchangers thatare in nearly new condition. They were installed by the PO. I really want to continue in the spirit of the GT and install the correct muffler - however the upward bend of the 1.7 exchangers wont allow it. Being that creating this muffler requires cutting holes and welding in new pipes, can I do the same thing on the rear and simply move the flanges up so it fits with the 1.7 exchangers? Does any company (like triad) make a muffler where I can use my current exchangers, but gives the appearance of the dual outlet GT muffler? In a perfect world, I would want to use the 2.0 muffler, add the pipes - but cap them off, keeping the factory outlet as well. I saw this on an RSR -looked very mean. |
