- I have been wanting to put an exhaust on the car to open it up a little bit and to be able to hear the car while I was playing music. I picked up an $85 exhaust off of amazon and the results surprised me!

I love that exhaust, sounds great, good job with patients and not damaging the studs , great job DAD with the ratchet straps I use them for everything even building the patio good second hand when working alone.
I've got that same impact, it pulls the lugnuts off my Silverado at 140ft/lbs with no problem. Exhaust sounds good man, I wish I had UEL on mine, I like that rumble.
The bug videos are easily my favorite, from the sounds of it the valves need be adjusted and the fan sounds like it is hitting the shroud a bit. Also, an alternator kit is the first upgrade I would do besides lift spindles and disk break conversion. I have four baja bugs but I havent got a class 11 yet. Watching yours makes me really wanna pull the trigger on one.
I'll have to take a look at the valves, checked them probably 1000 miles ago. What is the advantages of going to an alternator over a generator? Im curious if I was going to that if it would be worth it to just go all 12v
@@WingsWorldChannel Oh yeah, I completely forgot you are running an earlier bug so its a 6v system. In that case, it really comes down to what you plan to do with the bug. It wouldn't be hard to tax the existing system with lights, sound system, etc. The stock system will handle a simple stereo and some lights decently, but an alternator upgrade and 12v conversion is ideal if you plan to do much more. The biggest benefit for an alternator is the higher amperage produced, and it actually takes a bit less energy to kick over, the wiring becomes much simpler too if you use one with an internal voltage regulator. Also, I believe when you go to a 12v system that they use a different flywheel and starter.
i was thinking the same thing. the valves need to be adjusted. i could never stand that chirp on my Vw's. i always readjusted the valves so that it wouldn't chirp.
Can you use disc brake conversion on 2 1/2 spindles or just 2.5
i'd suggest pulling the motor and replacing the front and rear engine seals. looks like they are mostly gone.
No front seal. Uses an oil slinger and reverse spiral groove on the pulley snout.
No front seal unless some cut in a sand seal.
Volkswagen does not have a rear seal!
@@GarageItYourself apparently you forgotten which is the front of the car. They’re most certainly is a front seal next to the flywheel! There is no rear seal at the crank pulley! There’s a difference between the front and the back of the car. Lol
@@davidwest2773 what are you talking about ? there is a front and rear engine seal man! look at my channel I think i know volkwagens and if they have a seal or not
love the car. great video. those tires look awesome on the bug.
7.1k subs!! Awesome video! You guys are cool dudes!
Looks like its coming along great. I noticed you seem to be missing the rubber seal that goes around the engine tin. Being that its gonna be getting warmer soon you mite want to look into it. It keeps the heat from the exhaust and muffler from rising up and cooking the engine. I just put a new one in on my bug. Also Alternator upgrade is a fantastic idea. I agree with others on the valve adjustment. Super easy to do and plenty of DIY tutorials on UA-cam and samba for that.
I noticed that too when I had the tin out, should probably do that.
Nice sounding Bug! I just picked up a '63 in derelict condition. I hope to show the resto process on UA-cam someday.
By the way, WD-40 really isn't a good penetrating oil. Try PB Blaster or Kroil. They work great!
back around 2003 I built a 59 and lifted it to look like a class 11. For sure coolest car I ever owned. Had it on BFG all Terrains and Fox bypass Nitro shocks. Had Bear down in Chula Vista build a solid 1641 for it, and used to love ripping around in it. I miss that car!! Got a lowered 62 now and it is definitely a different experience, I hate Speed bumps!!
Good videos. One thing to try though, if a bolt or nut gets tight when taking off, tighten back up a little and work it back and forth in and out. Hope it helps.
Nice work. I like the SVDA distributor man. Smooth acceleration. I put them on both my bugs. 🤘🐞🤘
I'll come over and weed wack the joint for a lil Fab work...ha!
Another awesome video!!
haha! It's getting bad back here, definitely need to spend some time cleaning it up!
Great video guys 👍
love your beetle, the tires look good too. You need to mow your yard.
thanks!
Hey Wingman, how do ya like the oversize tires on those skinny stock rims? Any probs? They look great👍
Widow eggs... Triggered!!!
Whole undercarriage would be coated in a gallon of Home Defense spray!
i have the same on my 1600 cc 1970 beetle, its like music love it.
Nice video dude 👍
Just to let ya know that wheel bolts are only 63lbft. Just so you don't get galling problems from the higher torque you've been using 😉
Had this type in my 69, eventually one of the exhaust tip broke off, I liked the sound soo much I put one on my 66 later on too
You remind me of myself installing a glass pack (not quiet pac) header, on my '64 bug back in 1976. Bought it from JC Whitney catalog. Those were the days!! A little HP boost, but the sound...!!! Make sure all holes are plugged in all tins as the fan will suck the exhaust heat into cooling air. Purchase a repair manual and an original owners manual from the Samba VW website. Some advice. Keep that carb and dizzy. Leave it 6v. That car is going up in value! I have a 64 again. All stock. Cheers!
The stock pea shooters do sound pretty cool though.
Sounds and looks good 👍
Sounds good! Any perfromance advantages? Although its a smaller muffler, it sounds like it revs faster. You've openned up a can of worms, now you have to get the performance to match teh sound, lol! Like the other guys said, add an allternator, 009 or (019 Porsche) distributor.
Sounds awwwwwesome!!
I've been watching your videos and reading comments and still no luck...what size tires are you running? And possibly brand if you will share that! Absolutely love your ride!
I got the Empi version of that exhaust on my 65 Bug.
You did a great job, in both installation, and in video editing. It’s good to know I’m not the only who’s struggled with fitting an exhaust! lol
By the way, what type and size are your rear tires, and where’d you find them? I enjoy taking my Bug out to the desert and following trails. I’ve been wanting tires like that.
Thank you! The tires are 215-75 r15s bfg k02s, found them on craigslist!
did you get any power and torque gains with this exhaust? when you pull hills with it? i got a 65 bug stock 1200 when i pull hills i have to downshift the 68 bug i had i had an empi header on which worked best i didn't have to downshift pulling a slight grade left it in 4th gear. im not sure on the vintage speed exhausts out there. its the stock muffler that saps power when u need it most.
i kind of like the stock chirpy one better.. my beetle came with the loud one like you put on.. they are both cool... good video
The bug is purring nice! Nice work! Is there any dip in pick up ?
Good job 👍
Good Job on the bug! Nice Video too, yo. I'm still contemplating which way i wanna go on my bug's exhaust. right now it has a generic single "quiet pack" and its "AIGHT", it's definitely better, breath-wise, than stock... my bug build is on long-term hold cause I've been messing with my(daily driver) 1989 VW fox. DiD somebody say.... Cherrybomb? My neighbors are gonna love me.
also. does anybody know where i can get some of those nifty side view mirrors? TRistan like.
awesome ! whoa ......what tires and size are those !! I need a set !
I'm going to look into that exhaust! My son and I are working on our 69 Ghia that we saved from the car crusher!✌️👍
Just now saw your video Love the sound I went to your link can't find that 85 dollar deal when you get a chance where directly its at,thanks,what is the exact name of that muffler
Nice sound
It sounds great
Dude those side view mirrors are so koo where did u get those?
Good sound
I like your "Pee Wee Herman" laugh when you started with the new exhaust!
I think I saw it spit flames 😱😱😳
Looks like you're using jack stands on dirt. I suggest putting 2x10 boards around a couple of feet long under them to help prevent one side from sinking and dropping the car on you. I have a gravel driveway and have to do this all the time.
Cool upgrade in sound for $100
Did you end up just running the hoses down to the box?
The new exhaust sounds sick! Great upgrade for the bug!
Iam suprised you didn't put J tubes on and get rid of the lower heater boxes??
TSN
Im putting one of these on my 71 vert as we speak. I would of liked to seen how that lower gasket goes on because its a little dicey if you haven't touched a Bug in 50 years. PEACE
You need to do valve adjustment. You’ve got one cylinder making a racket maybe pounded valve seat
First. Love the bug makes me want to build one
thank you!
Hi, I have a 1200 beetle. I can't find the galvanized muffler you installed on your car. Can you tell me which company makes it?
Nice vw what year? I have one VW beetle 1960 and one VW karmanghia 1965 in restauration stage
I need this guy to be my friend
I miss my ‘68 😢
Sounds good honestly! That was cheap!
Dream bug!!!
Good job....
One could make the holes in the heater box J_tubes bigger , so they turn out a bit ,,
dude. the stock muffle 🤫
Sick! Where is Cali are u?
looked like Seal Beach area but i could be wrong
i have same exhaust , huge improvement in sound :)
Hector Otani did you set up the exhaust heater like he did ?
@@noahalby2286 no not at all , not u can if u wish
That smaller gasket is for some cross flow because if you have both the same size the flow fights each other were as it just flows one being smaller
Ah you did know 👍
I was thinking also to help trap more heat in the pipe that warms up the intake,
Mite need to adjust valve lash? Could not herethe chirping over the the valve train noise ?
Do you have a link for that exhaust? Sound nice
He did link it
Wings, you need some bigger socket wrenches!
what size tires do you have on that ?
good job rick ashley
What size of tires are on the back? To they rub?
Intake hearted restrictions keep intake from overheating
Valves need adjusting the tapping is real bad also for the heater hoses coming off the dog house block them with welsh plugs
Good 👍👍👍
What size did you drill the hole?
Absolutely more breathing for the bug even more hp
Does it matter what side for small gasket
They upped their prices ahaha
Fuck it. Buying an exhaust for my 74 super tonight 😂
yup
Thanks for the video, you have a car account on Instagram ?
Stock 1:35
Bew exhuast 12:41
"It's self"
Sounds good. Don't sell it ever.
Sounz like da leetul Bug vent too da jeem und got pumpt up like AHHHnuld
I snapped the bolt off on #3 cylinder head lol
Se escucha perron el mofle super power de miller
Heat Risers is all they are.
bad ass
All you hear in the before vid is the lifters lol
That classic VW chirp from the stock exhaust is priceless. Why give that up?
Tooop 😍😍😍
kool
only if you have a beetle you ruv the engine while your infront of your exhauste
THE ENGINE SOUND IS PORSCHE 356 A ENGINE SOUND !
So much for $85 … 3 years later and it’s now $146
AAAAAAAAAAHHHH - suh
No link or part name/number
😕 Bummed
what part number
what do you do for a living?
dont ask so cal kids that question if they wana tell u they will . they could have family money they could grow tree. they could be fabbers making bank. who knows.
@@aylahughes9185 im interested because they seem to be working on trucks all day in their garage and travelling around (like most youtubers shopping/chilling all day with no apparent source of income). If they are self employed I would love to know to get some ideas because you best believe I dont want to be doing 9 to 5 for the next 60 years of my life
@@boost800 fair enough homie fair enough. maybe if they had some insights it would be cool if they were shared they do seem to be living a very nice lifestyle.
Don't lose that 10mm
you probably should’ve gotten an exhaust from Jbugs and not Amazon lol
Did I hear a loose valve?
Dig the bug guys.
It's possible from the other comment I also got, I'll have to investigate
That’s what I hear too, or a rod about to go.
Doesn't look like a lot of R&D went into the design of that exhaust...I wouldn't be surprised if you've actually lost a couple of horses somewhere in the RPM range
I say it sounds great.
