The reason the factory 308 exhaust doesn't rust is because it is also made from stainless steel, just not highly polished like a Tubi. The weak area on the factory system is the resonators. The rust out with great regularity....starting with the perforated screens inside... |

How does the muffler look from the inside? Must be possible to build, or have build, a copy much cheaper using an old muffler and tubes and bends from the hardware store. I don't see the need for stainless steel as rust is almost never a problem with the 308 exhausts. Could be an interesting project! So if anybody else have tried this, and has a drawing or picture from the inside of a good sounding muffler... |

This is the one I've been considering buying. But the idea of more free flowing headers and exhaust is also appealing to me. Decisions, decisions.... |

Greetings:
I found a used tubi ad on ebay that my injected 308 brothers might be able to use:

Hope someone gets something nice. |
