RE: Exhaust Question

["James Richards" <jmr407@mindspring.com>]

I would like to thank everyone for the responses I received on the
different Mufflers people have put on their roadsters to improve the
overall note of the car.  Has anyone used any of the mufflers listed on
the link below?  Or know if any of the types listed would be a good fit?

I have put a JC Wittless "turbo II" made by Cherry Bomb on a couple
roadsters and have been happy with them. Louder than stock but more
mellow than the glass pack sound. Also a good turbo muffler actually
flows better than a straight through glass pack. I used 1 3/4 inch pipe
to get through the frame to the muffler and then 2 inch over the axle
and out the back. At the end I used a turn down. Seems to point the
noise at the ground and makes the noise level in the car a bit less.

The exhaust muffler on my 69/1600 is shot and needs to be replaced.
Rather than replace the muffler with a stock one that I could mach up at
any muffler shop. I am interested in finding one that may give the
impression that my little 1600 has a few more horses.  Has anyone
developed a Tuned Exhaust Systems for the roadsters? Something would
change the note of the car.
