I did a NA 12abp swap in my 68 bug about 10 years ago..before going back to a VW engine...thing was stupid fast...but it was also stupid loud..I had 3 mufflers on it and had the exhaust routed just in front of the passenger side tire..I wonder what a turbo engine would sound like????lol...

What mufflers, and was is really that bad?

81 GSL 05-10-08 04:27 PM

I used two dynomax thrush 2.5 in/out and a glass pack...

Ok, turbo mufflers are loud. I'm hoping that a big single from a suv will be relatively quiet. I've seen one like a dynomax, but about 2.5 feet long.


How many HP is this green monster going to have?

CHINX74RX2 05-12-08 12:17 AM

green monster
 
he's planned 300+ hp!! DAILY DRIVER!!! This car ran 11's back in the day w a 2litre turbo'd vw engine...Well see now ROTARY TURBO'D PWR soon....

Fortunately with a turbo you don't need as much muffling.
