Hey Boku, when you return to earth let me know where I can get tickets for the next event. OMG! A gathering of Charlies Angels and P-cars etc. would be an event for all time. I see you have taken my advice and are "Partying ON"!!!!

Well tomorrow is the big day. We drive to Callicoon to my friends home shop and install the CC muffler. Will give you a run down on Monday how it works out. Unfortunate that it will probably be raining on the way up but Sunday looks dry, at least that is what the "accurate" weather map predicts.

AKL :dance:

Callicoon, is that anywhere near Xanadu ???

No, it is out where Moses dropped his staff, out among em in so many words. Actually it is in Sullivan county along the Delaware river in NY state.

AKL Now about those tickets???

They're still working out the details of the script, but what do you think of the title Mondo Danger ?

anybody do the charlie chan with cat delete pipes ?

Yep, did it yesterday. Stock primary cats, sensors and header with Stebro secondary cat deletes and now my new 18lb Charlie Chan muffler. SWMBO gives it the thumbs up and believe me the lady is acoustically hard to please. Muffler gives a nice low rumble sound and not the high pitched screech I was worried about. No real discernible drone that would drive us both nuts. Very pleased with the set up and between the cat deletes and new CC muffler I dropped a lot of weight in the rear of the car. I will weigh the stock muffler later and report back. Really more of a sports car sound, not quiet but that is not what I was looking for. Eric, my friend who has the 944T race car and a 996 C-4 was worried it would be too loud and I/we wouldn't like it but he says he wishes his C-4 sounded as good.

Muffler was around $300 shipped so it was well worth it. A few issues that I will later describe but nothing serious. I do not know how the hell you would change out the muffler without removing the rear bumper but some here claimed to have done it and my P-car ball cap is off to you flexible souls. Bumper removal was not hard at all and I did not lose or break anything. Be sure to feed your two license lights back through the openings before bolting up the bumper.. Ask me how I know!!!! Also I didn't lose the three pins holding the spoiler cap on this time. Having access to a home garage pro lift and loads of tools was a plus. I can't imagine rolling under the car while up on jacks but again, kudos to those who do it this way. More later

Damn trouble is I now owe the Dangerous one at least a sixpac. :cheers: :dance: :dance: :dance:

I'm wondering if the Dangerous One also goes by the tag "Pavement". Reminds me of a gamer I used to know.

Damn trouble is I now owe the Dangerous one at least a sixpac.

Do I complete you or what ! I'll take a gin fizz instead .

Fizz it iz. But ya gotta bring the dame spilling out of her dress or a reasonable facsimile..... Zoom zoom zoom or rumble rumble rumble.

AKL

I can round up some of my ex-wives, and she if they can get a weekend furlough from the convent .

Dear Mr. Dangerous, you are a sick puppy but I luv ya anyway!

Just loving that new exhaust sound and will head out later for a joy run just to listen to the rumble. ;)

AKL

Here is my car with the exhaust on, the headers are coming tomorrow and Ill make another video after I throw those on. I think the exhaust sounds pretty good.

I should be getting my first commission from Charlie any day now !

nice clip, Penland. That sounds pretty nice, not at all annoying.

That is what mine sounds like. Not annoying at all. Thanks for the video.

AKL :cheers:

So am I wrong in assuming that this exhaust will sound the same as Che's from Top Speed, or is there something about this one that it doesn't sound quite the same as Che's?

:confused:

Probably the same muffler but I have never heard one close up.

AKL

AKL, Do you have the link to where you purchased your muffler from?

Took the plunge
 

After reading good reviews here and watching some YouTube video I took the plunge and got me the Charlie Chan muffler. $299 with shipping on ebay; 3 days later it was on my door. Just had it installed and must say that I'm joining the buy Johnny Danger a beer group. Luv it. Much deeper sound and just the right loudness. Learning something new every day off this forum; thanks for all for posting pics and especially the video's so I could hear the difference from stock muffler. :cheers:

I can't believe it, I've been invited to the Chinese Embassy for a PU PU platter !

Try this vendor. Better price than I paid but same muffler.

If you look closely at the pics of these mufflers you will see that many are exactly the same, all shipped from LA. I love the sound of mine, but you may not, but for that price, as opposed to say $1,200 +, I could afford to give it a try. Car is now music to my ears. How long will the CC muffler last? Don't know but I did keep my original stock muffler just in case. Will you like yours? Only you can say once you can hear it. My car has only the stock exhaust manifold with attached primary cat with O2 sensors fore and aft. Consequently there are no CEL issues and it passes NYState emissions. I have the secondary cat deletes and now this muffler. If you only put on the muffler you may have a bit less sound than I do which may be more to your liking. Hope this helps.

I suspect that "How You Go" muffler in Taiwan manufactures this one exhaust, and subsequently supplies all of these parallel vendors with the same one .

Pics, pics, pics, please. We need to see the inner workings of this most skosh enterprise! I am sure it is filled with Asian babes chained to the oars. Looooking forward to it.

AKL :dance:

Well I may just have to order one and if I hate it put the stock one back on. I'm sure I could resell it if needed. Thanks for all the replys. I'll put a sound bite and picture when completed.

First, I had to get past their security .

This was accomplished by wearing the most clever of disguises .

Once I infiltrated the facility, what I saw was beyond description . Women being forced to mig and tig weld under the most abject conditions !! What you're about to see maybe too shocking for some. Parental Guidance is suggested .
