Exhaust system
 
Check out my new SS exhaust system. Custom made (by me)
Hanging a bit low but not lower than manifolds.

Did not take away much of the sound. only high pitched tones are gone. stil got the boxer rumbling! and turbo whistle.

Dual mufflers, cool.
 
Your exhaust looks really smart and you've done well to get the mufflers in the same postion on each side. I think beetles should have 2 exhaust pipes they just don't look right but not may people go to that effort.

Would the 1 in to 2 join hurt performance. It seemed to me more like a T-piece rather than something you'd see with a merged header on a naturally aspirated car. It may not matter because I doubt there's a lot of back pressure with those mufflers.

Then again I'm sure you've got ample horsepower.

It's fun welding up your own exhaust. They're so short an easy on a beetle I've contemplated having different ones for different moods.

Well the "t" piece is the part that i was not very satisfied with. Its more like a "Y" now. It should have been made from 2 90degree parts but all i had left was one 90 and one 45 degree bend. so i welded the 45 in the middle of the 90 degree part and hope for the best.
Since i`m one dimension up from the original 2" i have a total of 5" flow area where the thing split.
I dont think this will slow down the exhaust gas. and the mufflers is "see trough" (very loud)
