Ran the exhaust 2 1/2" all the way through. Went with a high flow spun cat with a ceramic core and a magnaflow ss muffler. The result was more than I had ever hoped to achieve. The engine actually has a deep mellow tone, not tinny with back pressure popping during deceleration. I was concerned that I was going to give up a quiet pleasant ride for so so performance. Boy was I ever surprised.

I was wrong on the converter core material , it has a metal core.It is a pace setter converter. The muffler was a Magnaflow ultraflow ss, and a beautiful set of chrome tips. All of the parts were purchased from Jegs and ran me about $575.00 including the pipe work .

Kinda like a whole 'nuther car now isn't it  It is shocking what a good exhaust does for a turbo car with a few mods... Alan

Yes Lou. Jeff, The car spools up extremely quick. So much so that I do not really like to run my car that hard. The sound is a deep mellow sound for a 4 cylinder. No popping in the exhaust during deceleration. I did not end up with an obnoxious noise maker. I have to say that I was very pleased. Thanks all of you for your past post . That helped me decide what I wanted to do.

The last of the special built pedal cars will be going up for sale at the RM Auctions in Scottsdale in January. Built by the renown restorer Fran Roxas, this "Dusey" is truly is another work of art.
