So I made this stinger exhaust up to fit my NA flat fours currently just the Porsche but will be doing the VW version at the same time. Any thoughts as to good or bad would be appreciated.

Like the exhaust system. You mentioned ideas so I'll share what I had years ago. I think it was a system Impi offered at the time. Where the pipes come together, they formed a small collector with the option of bolting on a Stinger like your design or a small Muffler that would make the Baja Street legal. Hard to see much detail from one of the few pictures I have from that time, b ut maybe it will give you an idea that may or not be usable.

So all I understand that there are a hundred different exhaust systems I can't make a hundred different exhaust systems there is a limit to how many things I have time to design in inventory I'll consider doing one more though
