The megs venturi merge collector kit was less than a 1/3 of the cost and came out looking, in my mind, better than a Dynatech or Kooks. You can trim the divergent side of the collector to butt weld smoothly to the cobra pack muffler, or transition it internally.

Thanks Ronnie, that's a sweet setup. I need to see who I know that has a tig welder. Paying a pro shop can lead to a lot of $$ for all that detail. I have a gas mig welder myself but it'll be like doing brain surgery with a Bowie knive. I don't weld enough to make it pretty anyway. Also, with my existing 4" collector I'll have to see if I could pull the primary bundle together tight enough to fit in the new collector. A couple large hose clamps around the primary tube bundle might pull it together. Cone Engineering has some pretty good instructions on their web site too. A little investigation is in order. Thanx for the info..

Dave
