Couldn't load pickup availability
This is a New Old Stock (NOS) Volkswagen Performance Header and Muffler System, designed specifically for the classic air-cooled flat-four engine. This all-in-one "extractor" style exhaust is a period-correct upgrade for owners looking to improve engine breathing and achieve a deeper, throatier exhaust note. Tubing used measures 1-1/4" throughout the system except at the ports, where it steps up to 1-3/8" diameter.
Product Features
-
Four-into-One Extractor Design: Features mandrel-bent primary tubes that merge into a single collector, equalizing exhaust pulses for improved horsepower and torque over the restrictive stock pea-shooter design.
-
Integrated Glass-Pack Muffler: The large-diameter main body houses a high-flow resonator, finished with a classic flared chrome tip for a vintage performance aesthetic.
-
High-Heat Finish: Coated in a durable, satin black heat-resistant finish to protect against corrosion and withstand high engine bay temperatures.
-
OEM Accessory Quality: Features an authentic VW Accessory decal, indicating this was a premium aftermarket or dealership-offered performance part.
-
Easy Installation: Designed to bolt directly to the cylinder head exhaust ports, utilizing the standard 2-bolt flange pattern found on most air-cooled Type 1 engines.
