This is probably an easy one but I am just getting back into 914's after a 20 year absence. Is this a Monza on my 1.7. It sounds good but I dont like the way it sticks out to far and curves upwards. Can I do anything to change that or what other system would give me the look I want. It seems that I have 2 cutouts in the back for exhaust. Thanks for any help or suggestions. DougAttached Image

Got welder?

A muffler shop can cut those off and shorten them and/or point them further down.

Or you can get something like a Triad, or Racer Chris' (Tangerine Racing) setup, both of which I think are available with dual outlets like that.

Most mufflers are single-outlet, because that's what the stock ones were.

I'm sure Tangerine Racing will come up. I've heard very good things from the guys here on the forum about them, though I've never been able to get a response to any of my inquiries or communications regarding having an exhaust made.

...man, Dave beat me to answering again

Looks like a Monza to me. I have the same setup on mine and the same complaint.

you have 1.7/1.8 heat exchangers. make sure what you purchase is for that application. plan on ordering the correct h.e. to muffler gaskets. place a wtb ad in the classifieds.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) That's what I thought when I read it. Bet your email never made it to Chris. PM him if nothing else. I've always received a response within 24 hours!

Chris- I believe I had sent you 2 or 3 email inquiries quite some time ago (as I had just gotten my motor back from the rebuild). I do sincerely apologize for the comment if the problem was on my end- I have had some issues with my email at the office in the past, and that could very well have been the problem (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I'm also unsure why I did not try to pm' you on here at the time- that was an oversight on my part

In any case, I'm sorry for that comment- the responses speak volumes of what your customers and the guys on here think of you.

I changed email software earlier this year and may have lost a couple of emails at that time.
What's your real name & email addy? I'll check my records.
Its also possible I replied but you never received the reply.

Back on topic, I make a twin center outlet muffler for heat exchangers but I don't make a 4 tip or a spread dual tip anymore.
My first stainless muffler (standard outlet) for 1.7/1.8 HE's is being finished in the welding department today.
