Original Typhoon Muffler Part Number?

[johnso26]

Can anyone confirm what the original muffler was on a 1992 Typhoon? I believe it was a Dynomax SuperTurbo something, but I would like the actual part number if it's at all possible.

I talked to Dynomax and they were a little foggy. The man I spoke to seemed to think it was sold to GM as a catback and they definitely don't make that anymore.

They came up with a part number (Dynomax SuperTurbo - 17733) for the muffler only which would be fine if it's really the original part.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I was unaware that the Typhoon came with a muffler. One video I saw had Kim Neilsen (SyTy project manager) claiming that being a turbo'd engine, it was so quiet it needed no muffler. There was downpipe, cat and tailpipe. But......the Syclone had mufflers.

It definitely came with a muffler in 1992. I can't speak about the whole production run, but I would have to assume.

You're the guy with a super low mile black '92, right?

Yep, that's me. I think some moisture got in there and made a small hole. Of course, I want to replace it with exactly the same thing since she's all stock and super low miles.

I think the sy and ty used the same muffler but the ty only had 1 where the syt had 2. space determined this I believe.

In that case, the original part number for this unit was:

15637703

Good luck

From Kim Nielsen in the Syclone walkaround video....

"This turbo is so efficient, that no muffler whatsoever is necessary downstream, and the standard Sonoma catalyst is used so that the Syclone is EPA certified for sale in all 50 states."

:dunno:

Re: Original Typhoon Muffler Part Number?

I have my original which was removed when almost new in 1992. Less than 5,000 miles and stored in perfect condition. Has the OEM heat shield in place. I can send a pic if needed. Make an offer.
