Reply to "What is the point of 180 headers?"

CBFH mentioned the effect of mufflers on the 180's.
My opinion is that if the system is designed correctly, the muffler is complimentary to it.
You just can't arbitrarily pick a muffler to go on the end of the collectors.
Mine use a 24" glasspack. They really aren't much more then a resonator but they were designed with the headers.
In the Pantera the only time you really hear the exhaust is in an enclosed space like a garage or a tunnel.
The rest of the time there is just a pretty good rock band behind you. Geeze those guys sure can play.

Also IR intakes were mentioned here. I've got Weber 48IDA's on the car too. That is an IR manifold.
Most people stay away. I suppose that the combined sound is reminiscent of the 'pipe organist in the Phantom of the Opera. Probably explains why I am so 'freakin' nuts? No wait. I was nuts first? I don't know? Which came first the chicken or the egg?
