Default Best sounding exhaust for the 1980 911sc 3.0L

I would like a nice throaty sound, without too much noise under normal driving for my 1980 911sc 3.0L Wide open it can be quite loud and fun.

Look at M&K, Brian can add baffles if you feel it is loud. I have 2 in / 2 out.

Do you care about the cars performance or does the sound count more?

Excellent question!!!

Nothing beats Dansk for best power without annoying drone.

Steve is spot on of his assessment of the Dansk exhaust system on an air-cooled 911.

I have the stainless steel pre-muffler (replaces the cat) and SS sport muffler with the single 84 mm outlet. Great performance, great sound and lower oil temps...a Trifecta!

I have a 78'SC ... so NO CAT COVERT I'm told came with this early model. If so, do I need SSI? Would that do anything to having good heat? I def need the heat. Also .. does SSI help with sound too?

iFox,

I think you are correct...no cat on the '78 911SC. SSI's will improve both performance and sound on the SC's. You will not lose heat. You will need a new muffler with two inlet connections. You will not be disappointed with the improved performance.

I had SSI's on my '77 911S ROW and loved them. They connected to a Dansk 2-in, 1-out sport muffler. Really made a positive improvement in performance and enjoyment.

But what if I just go with the muffler? What’s the real advantage to ssi? Actually,what is SSI .. I know it’s a maker , but what is it exactly?? Will sound improve if I just get a Dansk muffler?

SSI just means a stainless steel heat exchanger with dual outlets, and 1.5" primary diameter.
