Re: Fw: [T3] "Over the top"


<x-charset iso-8859-1>Greg,

Here are some answers to your questions.

Is it a 4-into-1 header?  Yes.

Does it attach to the main heater boxes, or does it replace them?  It
attaches to the main heater boxes.

Does it get in the way of anything?  (Some of the nutty "hidden" Beetle
mufflers can get in front of the valve covers, for example.)  No.  I had no
problems.  It kinda fits in the area above where the four pipes merge into
one.  It bolts up the same as a single quiet pack only the muffler goes up
over the top of the header merge point.  I basiclly fits in the area where
the original muffler was.

Is it designed to be a performance system, or is it more like an easy-to-get
stock substitute?  Is it noisy?  In my opinion it is equivalent in
performance and noise level to a header with a single quiet pack muffler.

Does the tip look stock-ish, or very different?  The tail pipe exits the
stock cutout in the apron, but it comes out at an angle instead of straight
out and is larger in diameter.  Also, with this design you don't have to
worry about scraping like with a single (or dual) quiet pack.
