Spaghetti Exhaust System Ceramic-Coated

Spaghetti exhaust system, ceramic-coated.
VW Beetle engines 1300 | 1500 | 1600 (single hotspot) - for all mufflers + tailpipes except Phat Boy.

This system of tubes is necessary to ensure that the length of the exhaust port to the muffler is equal for each cylinder, to get the maximum power from your exhaust. A power increase of 10% is therefore no exception. The complete exhaust system consists of the header and the muffler, so besides the header you always also need a muffler. All headers are available in black paint for transport, and the most common ones are additionally fitted with a ceramic coating. The black transport paint is intended to prevent rust formation in warehouses. If you want to keep the headers black, you have to treat them regularly with a heat-resistant paint. As an option you can choose headers with a chrome ceramic coating. Due to the high exhaust temperature of 650 C, an impenetrable layer against corrosion forms, extending the service life and lowering the temperature.

Caution: The ceramic layer ensures a longer service life, but is no guarantee against rust from the inside or outside. If the ceramic layer is damaged, it is not stainless steel.

All headers mentioned here have an inner diameter of 35 mm. Tubes with a larger diameter are also available, but then you end up in a different exhaust segment. A common misunderstanding is the idea that installing a header exhaust system makes the heating supply disappear. This only applies to motorsport exhaust systems, not to the headers mentioned here. The heat exchanger tube is pushed directly onto the heat exchanger with a flexible aluminum tube.

The headers are supplied with gaskets, mounting hardware and a flexible heater hose. It is recommended to buy an additional hose if only one is supplied.

If you already have a muffler, check the distance between the mounting holes of the muffler; this must be +/- 58 mm and the upper mounting hole must be at 1 o''clock (except on Type 3, which is at 11 o''clock). If these details are correct, it is still not certain that the muffler fits your existing headers. We therefore recommend ordering a matching muffler directly, so that you at least have a matching exhaust combination.
