Hello

I become a Typ 4 engine in my Speedster from www.tafel-tuning.de and before I have a Typ 1 with a Sebring exhaust (single muffler) now I have found this one is also for typ 1 but maybe someone know if it's possible also gor a typ 4.

The exhaust must be from A-1 but at the homepage i don't find anything about so if here anybody know where I can buy this or have some other exhaust for my typ 4 engine.

Thx
Georg

Georg-

Carey Hines at Special Edition (info@beckspeedster.com) is selling these exhausts -- they are $1000 in raw steel, $1250 ceramic coated. I am not sure if this will work with your Type 4 engine or not, but I am certain that Carey can help you with this. The headers for my Spyder, for example, we fabricated at Carey's shop.

 

I hope this helps! Contact Carey -- he is wonderful and I am sure he can help you.

 

Best,

Anand

Georg,
 
I was interested, after reading your post, as to what you think you are going to achieve with such an exhaust?  Are you looking for better sound, or better performance, or what?
 
IMHO, unless you have some very serious HP in that Type 4 engine, you are not going to see any improved performance from $1,000+ headers like that.  
 
I'm not trying to start a debate, nor a dialog, but expensive headers for a low to moderate HP type 4 engine seems to be money not well spent.  If you are looking for better performance, maybe you ought to be looking at a turbo for your type 4?   Or maybe you ought to be looking at an EJ257 engine?

Terry:

 

Georg's in Europe, and the link he put up sends me to a Type 4 tuning shop advertising high-end 2.8L engines. I don't know what he's got, but I really, really doubt it's "low or moderate HP Type 4". Germans typically don't mess around.

 

Georg:

 

A1 is owned by a guy named "Tiger". His email address is: tigerperformance@aol.co The shop phone number is: 714-836-7201. If you call or email and ask him about the exhaust, I think you'll find out what you want to know. FWIW, I doubt that $1K will touch this.

Morning at all I become a typ 4 engine with 140 PS and 2.1 liter not 2.8 or like this I bought this kind because my 1.950 ccm with maybe 90 PS was broken after 1.850 km It was a original from vintage but when I open it to see what all is broken it was only a 1.8.... and I think no 90 PS The price here in germany for a new typ 1 in the same condition is similar so for a better performance with not so much tuning I got the typ 4 (it will be cost 10.000€ as a complete engine) You see also the old exhaust in the pictures and this was a tri-mil but only for show I think My tuner makes normal beetle and so he have only exhaust systems for this kind. It will be cost also 950€ and more or less + 500€ to build such one to a single muffler I want. So for a performance engine you need also a good exhaust to make it round. To look at the ventil it will be better that the exhaust will be not in front of them so the kind of exhaust I link do this I want also a engine which run 160 km/h in sommer all the time on the motor way at long distance and have no problems with the heat It will be in 7 sec at 100 km/h and in the end about 190 km/h )) So i think I can have fun if I want Thx Georg
Hello it will be a little tricky Carey from beekspeedsters write me back that the exhaust come from tiger A1 and give me the adress. I write to tiger but still now no answear about the exhaust. Have tiger a homepage? I don't found one only other shops but this shops most sell the sidewinder .... I found also one in UK the name is karmannkonection http://www.karmannkonnection.com/ the exhaust look likes the same and they sold two of them http://www.karmannkonnection.c...hanical_Parts_8.html : Polished Sebring Exhaust Madril Bent Sebring exhaust in Fully Polished stainless steel. Fits all 356's and 912's with push rod motors and includes fitted removable baffle. Shiny & Superb! But also only typ 1 so far because I have no responce if there do this for a typ 4 Have anybody messure the db of the exhaust at half of the max rpm of the car - means how loud does it is? Thx Georg
Hello I know that CSP have a exhaust for a typ 4 and some more also but the challenge is to have a single muffler and you doesn't remove them to check the velves like jack say The pyton looks also not nice at a 356 speedster because it must be the double muffler or for the sportiver version like a gt a single oval muffler in the middle So a question to mango have you some photos from the exhaust with the typ 4 - i hope so because i saw a lot of pictures from your car You can send it with email - i hope this will function otherwise write here back and i will post the adress Thx Georg
