Sorry for taking so long Bela. It is not currently in my plans. I just started working on the car from NJMP. I did a couple of races afterwards, but now all of the front body is off. I have to prep, paint and re-assemble.

My new exhaust with the Magnaflo #12568 monster 2-in/2-out passed no problem. My buddy with the same muffler on his 3.6 964 was borderline but they let him run. The sound guy was very cool, came around and discussed his findings and was pretty sure once the trees have leaves on them the borderline's will be fine. It's only DE days that are an issue, other than the fact I had to make up a new muffler it's no big deal.. Belucch, now that you know mine passes you know what to do! I was told mine doesn't sound a lot quieter, just has a lower tone, which I believe is part of the equation..

Gary, can you send me details on your exhaust? Did Steve Weiner make up the mandrel-bent connections?

Glad you passed...there's hope for us yet...I just removed 4 of the 12 plates on my super trapps and hope that solves the problem....Also bringing some "miracle grow" for the trees.

No, I just took some 90's and 45's and cut to fit, Mig'd it all together and done. Trick is to get the muffler itself mounted first, then custom fit the pipes. I posted pics of the mounting and setup here and on pelican but would be happy to email you everything I have Don, just let me know.
