EMPI's VW sideways merge design of the Black Sideflow exhaust system tucks the exhaust pipes up behind the apron for great ground clearance and a hidden, performance exhaust. The header pipes are made from 1 1/2" tubing and painted black. The muffler sits next to the right valve cover keeping it out of plain sight and ends with a chrome plated exhaust tip. The side flow exhaust fits 1966 through 1973 Standard Beetles and 1971 through 1973 Super Beetles. The exhaust can be used in all year Beetles, Super Beetles and Karmann Ghias with carbureted 1300cc through 1600cc based engines. The sideflow exhaust system does not have heat riser provisions so it is recommended for dual carbureted engines only.

Will not clear filter-pumps like 9206/9207

Black Paint is only a rust inhibitor!
If the black paint is not removed before installation, it will burn off in a few hours. Regardless of where you purchase your exhaust, when buying an exhaust system we recommend stripping the exhaust with a good solvent or sanding the paint off and then painting the exhaust system with a high quality, High-Temperature Exhaust Paint. None of our exhausts are warrantied against rust. If you want an exhaust with a durable finish consider a ceramic coated, chrome plated or stainless steel exhaust.

Our Expert's Take:

This style header is great for the cars that are slammed- it has an advantage over the other options in that the exhaust flange is up and out of the way making it almost impossible to scrape the ground. It has a nice throaty sound to it also.
Jaime

Jaime started working at JBugs as a teen all the way back in the mid-90's; a customer turned employee buying parts for his own cars. He took a 10 year hiatus to become an ASE certified automotive technician, but eventually made his way back to his first love, VWs. In fact, Jaime has owned over 50 VWs including Beetles, Notchback, Squareback, Karmann Ghia, and Bus. His real passion is for building Baja Bugs and he has extensive experience in roll cage, chassis, and suspension fabrication. In his current role at JBugs he is responsible for quality control of products and technical support.
