Hi All
New to this forum and to Fiats in general so appreciate any help!
Looking to replace the stock exhaust on my 1979 Spider. Any suggestions re a kit that would help with performance? I've come across a few but not sure what would be best.
Found this one for example:

Thanks!

Re: Performance Exhaust
I have Fun Imported system from behind the cat. 4 bolts flange. All SS if interested. I paid $250 for it. Make me an offer. The kit you check is way too expensive. I paid less than half that price for my 2.5 all 304SS and magnaflow 3 chambers. It was way too loud for me so i add a 14 inches resonator and now the sound is good. Your system is straight true exhaust...it will be loud. The reason i change for 2.5 is that i have a turbo and the 2.5 system awake the beast. If you plan to keep it stock, you don't need 2.5.

Re: Performance Exhaust
If your Spider is otherwise stock, you're wasting your money on a fancy system if you're looking for added performance. There are other things to do before that (mainly on the induction side). If you just want a system that has a nice "performance" sounds the Ansa "twin tip" is a nice way to go.

Re: Performance Exhaust
I bought Vics stainless system in the spring (27-9371 + 27-9372 ) and im very happy with the quality. Also added a Summit glass pack. That combo worked for me with a not too loud report.
Im done with Ansa's. They simply don't last that long for me, with condensation staying in system on a lot of shorter drives and only driving 6 months in Michigan.

Re: Performance Exhaust
It's stock but in really poor shape so will need to be replaced unfortunately.toyfiats wrote:If your Spider is otherwise stock, you're wasting your money on a fancy system if you're looking for added performance.
