Howdy all,

I just finished an 1,800 mile trip in the turbo wagon, the second such trip in the past five months. The wagon ran like a champ, but the exhaust system needs some attention. The pipe snapped in half outside Louisville, making for a noisy trip down south. I rigged it back together with one of those repair kits from AutoZone, the one with the flexible tubing and the clamps. While under the car, I noticed that there is only a single muffler. My other (non-turbo) 240's have had two mufflers. Do the turbos only have a single muffler?

My AutoZone fix is only temporary, as Michigan has been less than kind to the exhaust system. Are there any opinions out there on the kit that FCP Groton sells? Any other kits that people recommend?

Thanks, as usual,
Keith

Thanks for the replies so far. Is there a BB recommended exhaust kit for the turbo?

I thought FCP sold the individual pieces for the turbos, if not a kit. I got a 240 (non-turbo)system from FCP...components were made by Starla in Sweden. Supposedly they are a large aftermarket supplier there. Quality seems pretty good.

Cool. I somehow missed that link on the FCP webpage before.

Thanks,

The kit that FCP Groton sells is fine, but it won't fit your turbo. It's only for n/a 240s.
