I thought I did all my research when I built my gorgeous ceramic system butI think it may still be too loud for my tastes. It sounds great except when trying to carry on a conversation. I have the original Thing turbo style mufflers that came from SS Headers which flow into Magnaflow tips. I had "silencers" welded into tips and it helped but the sound is still more extreme than I would like. So any suggestions?

No, it's not a header- it's a TriMil exhaust like they sell at a lot of places in the back of Hot VWs. $85 should take you all the way. It fits, sounds, and works great, by the way. I tried four exhausts on my 1776, this one was what stayed on the car.

Justin- I know your exhaust is a pain to adjust the valves with, but it is the ultimate exhaust system for a 1776 (up to a 2 liter engine). It's got 1-1/2" primaries, and stock dual outlets. It's powder-coated, and beautiful. I'll be Jim had over $1000 in that exhaust- it's as close to perfect as you can get with these cars.
