Thumbs up Love my new Bursch sport muffler....
Just thought I would share- last wkend I got the old rusty/not in the best shape old one removed and, based on my research and discussion with one or two folks, I took the leap of faith and ordered it- it not only sounds just about what I had hoped for (a bit louder but not really, and a nice burble at idle) but also looks nice as well... so, if anyone is considering a new muffler, I recommend the Bursch.......! Oh, and it is HUNdreds of dollars cheaper than all the fancy SS ones advertized.......

Cheers, TriTom

They sound nice but are kinda cheap and the paint bakes off quickly. Also check the supporting nuts in the middle. I've had the nuts back off of mine.

Tom,

Consider sending it out to be Jet-Hot coated ( http://jet-hot.com/ )

Before my current MK exhaust (also Jet-Hot coated), I had my Bursch done. Used the Bursch for about 5 years. When I sold it, it looked just about brand new.

Thumbs up Yup...
Thanks Vu and all who appreciate the "B".....I like it and am pleased to share the news of my simple tweaking of an already FABulous car.....with the new Bursch in, it is hard to even damn PARK it (and turn it off) because... I love the sound of the new muffler......!

Whoa------!

I did, but now that I have finally been able to smuggle enough cash out of the house to get her just perfect, think I'm gonna keep her.........!
