Default Which exhaust?

So I ordered a GHL Dual exhaust system from Burseth racing and I get the email confirmation and receipt on the product. Two weeks go by and no exhaust at my door yet so I shoot them an email to check on the status of my order. So they tell me that the exhaust has been discontinued and that they only carry Fabspeed products now. I looked at their site right away to see that they were still offering the GHL for online purchase. I wrote them back telling them my dissatisfaction and how they could have at least told me it was discontinued instead of charging me and sending me nothing!

Anyways, needless to say there will be no business done with them. Leading me to the question of.... Does anyone here recommend a good exhaust brand and vendor? I have an 82' Eurospec 930. Thanks for the help

I'm leaning towards this:

Anyone have the B & B system? Do I need to get a wastegate pipe also?

Anything bought from Automotion is WAY overpriced.

GHL stands behind their products. Great cutomer service.

I bought the FabSpeed duals from Stephen at Imagine and love them. I will say, I was a bit concerned to cut the rear panel for the extra exit pipe, but did the deed. Honestly, when I listen to the note it makes when the turbo kicks in and the wastegate rips, it's loud and sounds great. Also, when down shifting or letting off the throttle to slow, the rumble and exhaust "poping" is great. It still sounds throaty and mean at lower RPMs, but not loud, however, when you reach boost, and stay on the throttle, it rips. I love it and everyone tells me it sounds killer. I also really like the dual exit look.

This picture is the day the exhaust was installed. It has been adjusted and does not exit so low as in the picture.

You might also give Brian Bodart a call....between Brian (Rarlyl8) and Ben at M & K....they come up with some great SSI based exhaust systems. A number of guys on this forum have used them...including myself. Very pleased with the quality and performance.

Very helpful info everyone, keep the suggestions coming. Those with the two out B & B... Do you think that yours is as loud as a Zork Tube? I want a roaring exhaust, but civil enough for city driving, not as loud as a Zork.

I see Pelican is a Rennlist sponsor. They have agreed to carry my line; does that mean I can talk about it here via proxy? Ha!

It sounds like you are looking for a muffler only. I'd be glad to speak with you and help you find what you want. If I don't have it I likely know who does.

We posted simultaneously. You are describing my "hooligan" system. About 2/3 Zork level.

Default I'd like to experience this beautiful set of headers

I believe they are Holcomb headers.
They look to have tuned equal length primarys with heat.
I saved these pics from another person's post.

No big deal to remove the wastegate when adjusting left side exhaust valves.
