They used to sell them in the JC Whitney catalogs. It was a short Y pipe with a cable controled damper that you would mount in front of the muffler (weld in if I remember). With a pull on a choke like **** on the dash the butterfly inside would close off the muffler and open up the exhaust.
Are these still available? if so where?
I think I would rather have that than to do away with the muffler altogether

You can easily test the sound by loosening the clamp on the muffler inlet and slip the pipe out of the muffler. The hangers will let everything ride safely while you give it a try. Oh, it will take your foot and a few choice words to "slip" the pipe out of the muffler but I did it in about 10 minutes. I never went back!

Never knew what type of turbo they put with the PSD. I referenced it because of my background with diesel engines comes from farming and tractor pulling. Knew a guy that put twin M & W turbos on a 1206. Made his on intake and maniford and turned up the pump to 460cc. Of course this fell into the "farm stock class." Put up one heck of a fight in the SS class.

I have my exhaust cut out. No cat. The turbo keeps it quiet till about 2500-3200 rpm then it sounds like a 351 with a cherry bomb muffler. And the turbo whine is un real but its something you have to like hearing.
