Re: [DMCForum] Turbo cars' exhaust

["Dave Stragand" <dave.stragand@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

There are a bunch of pics of my exhaust on the Project Vixen site.  The exhaust pipes are only about 9" long off of the turbos, and Marc is correct -- they are not supported well.  Still though, the mufflers are -very- light, and I didn't think this would be a huge problem, but I deally they should be supported on the outboard side.

  Many of the turbo cars just have a cat..   the older
  ones only have a muffler (for Island twin setup).

  The mufflers are supported only by the pipes.  This is
  a poor design, as it puts a lot of stress on the pipe,
  and the various joints in the system.

  If your doing the Eagle setup, why not go with the
  dual exhaust setup from Europe (Will it fit Martin?)?
