Triad exhast had to go

Naturally, I could not leave my new car “as is”. My need to have influence was almost immediately guided towards changing the muffler to a Dansk 911 exhaust. What you see below is a so-called Triad exhaust which I did not much care for. I am sure it’s a fine muffler, but aesthetically it’s not very appealing.

The Dansk muffler is very, very nice and it installed quickly. Aahh, the sound it makes, and I was happy to have made an improvement to the car.

Yikes – glad to have it go!

The car is equipped with headers and thus has no heat. Whatever, I can wear a sweater if needed. So far I have not had problems of the windshield fogging up even during rainy days.

The new muffler looks 1000 times better, sounds better and was a drop-in replacement – $1000 was all it took ;-)

  1. Hello Porsche 914 friend.
    I’m working at Bosal research in Belgium and we are in contact with 914-people from Porsche Classic Club Belgium.
    We’ve re-developed a 914/2.0 muffler for them. We build them on request with single and twin tailpipe. All stainless steel.

    Just contact me for more information.
    Kind regards,
