JBugs - 2 Tip GT VW Beetle & Ghia Exhaust Installation

Описание: View our complete selection of air-cooled VW parts on the JBugs website: http://www.jbugs.com/

A leaking exhaust not only sounds bad, it can lead to decreased engine performance, and poor fuel mileage. Our 1967 Sunroof Beetle's original muffler had seen better days and since we just received our very own 2 Tip GT exhaust that we've been developing for over a year, we figured what better opportunity to install it?

There are plenty of options when it comes to aftermarket exhausts for VW Beetles, even those that still exit out the stock VW apron cut outs. We aren't aware of many though that still have factory VW style preheat provisions. VW engineers did a great job of ensuring that the single carburetor, centered over the middle of the engine, and isolated away from the heat of the cylinder heads, stayed warm, by using the exhaust gases.

The preheat ports were designed with a high pressure side (right off the cylinder head) and a low pressure side (behind a tail pipe) to make sure that the exhaust gases flow through the tube. Most aftermarket exhausts put the ports right off of the head, which essentially puts the two ports in a battle against each other, with none of the gases actually flowing through from one side to the other as VW intended.

What does this matter for your VW? For stock and single carburetor equipped engines, it means that the intake manifold will be properly warmed up. This ensures smooth acceleration and performance regardless of the ambient air temperature. So follow along as our tech Sam installs the exhaust on our 1967, covers some tips and shows you how to install an aftermarket exhaust and retain the stock heater boxes and fresh air hoses.
