Thanks for answering Grahame and Lee. It is the first silencer after the downpipes that has rusted.The 2 rear silencers appear to be original stainless steel and are in good nick. I have been watching ebay and just missed an x pipe which looked like a replacement for the front silencer. The new silencers I have seen are all a fortune.I will try Simon Watson Lee.

Thanks Brett,That is the bit I need,would you sell it? I am in Glasgow,but wuold collect it no probs.Thanks Euan.

I'd quite like to remove the silencers on mine, i'm wondering if it would spit flames as well if it was straight through.

Thanks for taking the time to send photos Brett.Mine is only marginally worse,so Ill weld it if I cant source a replacement.Cheers Euan.

Hi Euan they often appear on ebay for alot less than new .I have been told that the original porsche ones have a high stainless steel content and rarely rust not sure how true this is.Perhaps someone with more knowlege can confirm this . Has yours rusted? Cheers Grahame

There is a guy on the 928 uk mailing list called Simon Watson who is breaking a few S2's. If you want his name and number, send me a PM.

Hi I have the front section from the downpipes with the big front box...and twin outs ... I kept mine when I put on an X-Pipe... Is that the section you want ? Mine is an 86 S2... All the best Brett

NO front boxes at all , replaced by X-PIPE and straight through 3 inch race pipe, NO middle resonators ..replaced with straight through 3 inch race pipe, 1 rear straight through twin box (the new S4 ones that Paul Anderson makes and sells...) So basically for my Nitrous that NEEDS the least exhaust resistance possible, I have ONE rear straight through box.... And its LOUD ...very very LOUD...THINK 130 plus decibels at 6000 revs (and mine goes over 8000), cannot measure that though as my decibel meter only goes to 130 lol I videoed mine once on a dyno and had GREEN flames out of the exhaust lol... All the best Brett

Sounds good. I noticed when mine was up on a ramp that the rear muffler is welded to the middle pipe, is that common? Probably better off getting the whole thing replaced in future. Need to get it back so i can use it first.

Hi Pictures as promised including the rear kidney shaped box which is in good condition, the front box needs welding though as shown in the picture....apologies for that but I didnt realise until I got it out....

Hi Euan No problem, I will probably bin it actually.... The rear I will keep though as they are over £1000 from Porsche and it may help someone one day.... All the best Brett
