Stebro

[Tessie McMillan]

Ben, I'd really recommend not putting in an SS exhaust on a water-cooled
car. I'd go to a place like Stan's headers (http://www.stans-headers.com),
which did my custom exhaust setup using glasspack and Magnaflow. The tune is
awesome and so is the performance. The cost was cheaper ($500) than any of
the exhaust kits I priced.

SS is (how do you spell this?) "de-rigeuer" on the air-cooled 911s --
everything prior to '96, and I have a BEAUTIFUL Dansk SS exhaust on my 911
RS (replicar &:-)). I couldn't figure out why this was until my mechanic
reminded me: "air-cooled". There is less water in the system and the exhaust
is directly under the engine so the temperatures stay very very hot. SS on a
traditional water-cooled car rot from the inside like nobody's business
because water condenses in the pipe as it cools and then rusts the pipe.
