Kris Posted 15May, 2014 Report Share Posted 15May, 2014 Hi guys, I just wanted to get some opinions on what to do with my exhaust. Turned off by the price of SSI's and the oil lines etc, I was thinking of going down the header path. From doing a bit of reading I was looking at the European Race Headers and a Monty 2 in 1 out muffler. I was ok to do away with the heater as I'm in Qld. Today I had a chat with a parts supplier, who noted that because the heat is not available to the front demister I would have rego problems. I also had a chat about the muffler and the opinion was that the Monty is too loud for road use. In Qld we don't have to do periodical roadworthy checks but I dont want to have compliance issues either. I was wanting to see if anyone out there is running a similar setup on a road car and what the consensus is on the demister and the noise of a Monty. Cheers Kris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tazzieman Posted 15May, 2014 Report Share Posted 15May, 2014 I'm in Qld. ...the noise of a Monty. I feel the pain of those of you living in police states. A Monty is WAY quieter than a Harley! And you don't need a decibel meter or sound engineering/audiology degree to figure that out in dozy ol Tassy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kris Posted 15May, 2014 Author Report Share Posted 15May, 2014 haha good analogy. He was saying it's because the Monty does not have much of a baffle and that dansk is better for noise. All I have heard is rave reviews on the Monty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clutch-monkey Posted 16May, 2014 Report Share Posted 16May, 2014 you don't need heat in qld. if it becomes an issue keep the stock system and simply bolt it up when required for rwc or whatever. i run a full fabspeed system, but the headers aren't compatible with a monty sadly. need something with near stock dimensions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glom1098 Posted 19May, 2014 Report Share Posted 19May, 2014 Hi Kris there is a stainless header/muffler combo on ebay at the moment that you should consider-look up porsche 911rsr (I have no links with the seller!). Dont know if you would have to mod the oil lines to fit. I have a monty (2 in one out) with SSIs on my 911sc-its great for noise but pretty loud on the street-all fine as long as you dont want to hear the radio or wife. Drones a bit on the freeway though-I wear ear plugs if I travel long distances. All depends on the intended use of the car.. Lukas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JV911 Posted 20May, 2014 Report Share Posted 20May, 2014 All I have heard is rave reviews on the Monty. Stand by for another...I've had 2 and in my opinion they're perfect! A 1/1 on a 2.7 with a pre-muff, then a 2/2 on a 3.0 with SSIs Will be getting a 3rd for the project car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
