yeah and if you put the together they would be almost 2 feet long. so i would think it would be nice and quiet. now what is the minimum size for a wastegate exhaust to prevent boost creep. they are 1.5 on one side and 1.75 on the other side but it looks like it shrinks a bit inside. i did a search for them to find more pics. cant seem to find it now though. oh, what does it mean removable baffles?

i would put a Y under there so you can have True Duals...

but seems like you can remove/replace the baffles?

i didnt read the replys, but yes you can plumb it back in theexhaust, also back when porshe made the 930 cars,, late 70's - mid 80's the gray market cars had open waste gates they also had a muffler... but knowing porsche parts the muffler is probably $10K lol...

I just vented my sts kit straight to atmosphere -- of course, it was back near the rear tire anyway though.

No muffler was necessary however. I kinda liked the sound

****, depending on how much it cost to fix my lifter/head gasket i may have to deal with no muffler on it for now. as it is with just a leak it sounds like a charge pipe leak.

i really liked my truck better after running the wg exhaust thru a muffler. it was stupid loud with open wg's

that muffler is a strait thru unit but made it very quiet.

A vented wastegate to me sounds nice when in boost as it is bleeding the boost off
