Yeah all it needs is different hanger's. I think you can find the kit at a dealer easily.

No urge to upgrade since it went bad?

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.

Naw, mine's fine. I just want to experiment on another one with those bypass pipes. They're selling them for $400 plus s/h on Ebay from Europe and I figure I can try it for less than half of that if I can find a used 2.5 muffler.

The S muffler will not bolt into my 2.5, and there is no hanger or bracket kit for an S, so an S muffler won't work for my little experiment.

Anyone have an old 2.5 muffler lying around your garage you want to sell me?

Randall,

Hi,

Have you seen this one? It's Modified and Thermal Ceramic Coated at much less than those from Germany. : http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/PORSCHE-BOXSTER-986-OEM-MUFFLER-EXHAUST-FITS-1998-1999_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ33636QQitemZ804647 7203QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW

Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99

Jim, I've got that muffler on my ebay watch list right now.

I was kinda hoping to find a muffler for $100 plus hard shipping costs from someone on the forum here so I could get a muffler shop to weld up those bypass pipes like the ones from Germany and see how it sounds.

The one you referenced above has some work done to it already and I'd hate to do more to it as it's roughly double what I want to spend.

Thanks for pointing it out to me though!

Hi Randall,

I have the stock muffler from my 2001 Boxster available. (if no one has stolen it out of my back yard, I'll check tomorrow )

If that will work for you, you can have it for $100.00 plus whatever it costs to ship. Let me know,

Mike Navarro
