| I love the look of that type of system, especially on the Ghia. Its just that mine is kind of loud. The collector and QP muffler systems dont look good, but sound better and are more efficient for gas flow. If you dont mind a little noise and like the look, go for it. |

i just love the look of the 4 mufflers it just makes it more beastly.
One more question i had was what kind of mileage can you expect to get out of a ghia with this muffler on it |

| As long as you dont rejet, which is probably not needed, no mpg change. Rejet and mpgs should drop in proportion to how much richer. |

I always liked that style muffler(I call it the M3 style)but I think I might go into a different direction when I finally buy mine...

Using the link I posted, you will see that the outer tailpipes are approx in line with your #4 and #2 exhaust ports.
