Sprint Exhaust - recommendations?

PostPost by: hansaxl » Fri Jan 04, 2013 10:39 am

Hi everyone,
the rear part of my exhaust system has become pretty worn, and personally I think it is a bit loud with the absorption ("see-through") silencer the PO had fitted.

The car is a 1970 S4/Sprint, the engine runs on 40 DCOE with a steel crank and the "fast road" big-bore header by TTR, putting a bit more than 150 BHP.

Question: Do you consider it a no-brainer to fit the according parts (pipe and silencer) that TTR offers, or would you recommend other suppliers? I ask because I noted in the archive that some people have had problems fitting the silencer to the body, or does this only apply with the pre-S4 bodies (transverse silencer)?

Thanks for your comments,

Cheers,

Hans

I personally would fit the TTR pipe and silencer that goes with the headers you have. Should have no problem fitting them. The earlier cars with a transverse silencer need to fit a larger tunnel n the boot floor to fit the straight versions that TTR supplies but for a S4 should be fine but TTR will know

a nice motor cycle muffler [ silencer] works a treat and looks and sounds quietly racy ed
