Call me crazy, go ahead, it's okay ( ) but it's not that the exhaust is louder, it just has more rasp and character and sounds a bit more like older air cooled 911's.
My favorite was always my '70 914/6. It had the same muffler as a 911, but I guess the different piping made it more raspy, almost like tearing a big piece of canvas.

I really wish we had some sort of dump system so I could blast the next **************************** on a two wheel tractor (Harley-Davidson) I have to sit next to at a stop light. I guess they think 'cause I'm sitting in a sports-car with the top down, I'm gonna like the sound of a puking two cylinder tractor with open pipes.
If we start running them all off the road, will they stop that "loud pipes save lives" BS?

How many miles could I get away with driving my Box with open exhaust?



birds poop on my car less than you...
