Danske muffler - second thoughts.......

[Dan Chambers]

Okay exhaust-knowledgeable guru's. I've been thinking about that fancy, Stainless Steel Danske exhaust I had on my car at one time, (yes, that "rice-burner-sounding" thing that drove you all crazy) and wondering if I shouldn't consider re-installing it .... this time with a noise reducing addition at the tip. I've seen some cone-type exhausts on other cars with some type of "silencer" installed - ones that can be removed on track days (John Straub's 914 comes to mind). So: ??? Is there a quiet-ing adapter/insert that I could put inside the end of the Danske muffler to make it more street-appealing and less blappy????

Dan,

There are a couple of options available to do what you want. A Supertrapp "Disc-only" diffuser added on the exhaust tip, http://www.supertrapp.com/product_secti ... p?CatID=27, or possibly a Schoenfeld Headers insert muffler added inside the tip. http://www.schoenfeldheaders.com/mufflers.htm

The Supertrapp can have discs added and subtracted to vary the muffling. The muffler insert is a one-shot deal. Both will probably rob power, but then you have a 944, so how much can you lose?

Good luck,

TT

Great! Thanks, Tom. I knew there was something out there.

As to power loss .... I'll run on the street with one less squirrel, and save on the nuts! The track will be "all squirrels firing."

Thanks again.
