Re: '90 Spider middle muffler

[C2slayman@domain.elided]

Ken,
       I have to agree with Russ' prognosis on keeping the center muffler and 
ditching the rear muffler.  On my '89 Spider, I have a straight pipe 
replacement for my rusted out center muffler and an Alfa Ricambi twin tip 
rear muffler.  The cat con is stock.  The system is loud but not impossible.  
However, I plan on upgrading the system at some point in the future to a 
freer flowing exhaust manifold, a freer flowing cat con, a turbo-style center 
muffler and a straight through rear pipe.  I believe this will reduce the 
backpressure AND produce a better sound level (ie not too loud and not to 
quiet).

Cheers,
Charlie
'89 Spider
