Really like the creativity going into this car. Seems like its going in the right direction, but I wanna see some of that 15x10.5 installed!

sorry for the lack of updates and thanks for the support and positive feed back!
CANCER TREATMENT phase:BUT before i get to that time to play catch up.
i finally got my alignment once i changed my rear suspension and trans. everything was really off, im really suprised how well the car handled through mountain passes with it being so out of whack

SORRY for shitty quality pics
after looking at mufflers that were just way to expensive to put on an old motor i decided to make my own version of a triple exit rally style exhaust. Very similar to ones seen on 911rsr
i used some 2 1/2" pipe i had laying around and it made the car sound really raunchy and loud..with the occasional foot long fireballs when flooring it

got a new fuel pump after killing 3 cheap ones

etc etc etc...RUST TIME!

The triple exhaust kills this in my opinion, but an awesome car man! You should definitely make a thread for that Beetle

Its always been a dream of mine to own an original 911, keep it up man.

[M M]

I'm liking this build. I was pretty happy to come across this just now as I have been researching these old 911's for the past few days, really starting to fall in love with them. Anyhow, I'll be following this, looking forward to see those wheels on.

yea its really a not love it or love it thing. most people are on the fence till they ask me about it. It was a cheap solution to a better sounding exhaust that is still somewhat period correct.
And i didnt wanna spend 800$ on one, so i made it

but yea thanks! maybe ill make a build thread for the bug one day..it would be a little hard though since i did so much work to it without taking any pictures

[hawaii911]

oh and a little story article my friend did

The third exhaust pipe is like the redheaded stepchild. It would be much cooler if the third pipe sat level with the ground, and the other two exhaust tips were polished, and have the same tip.

The reason people don't like it is because the shiny new third pipe looks too new(or the other two look too old), and it has erectile dysfunction. It's just hanging there.

IMO, the idea of the exhaust is killer. No need to pay a big company for something you can make yourself. The execution what is hard to accept in our eyes(redheaded step child).

Hope I helped you understand where the **** is coming from.

Your car, do what you like. Third pipe or not, I still think your car is pretty badass.
