[acidbug]

yea, still has resonator

hmm..Not sure what to tell ya? But maybe it's from the flex portion of the header??

 

[zmepro]

it sounds like its from the muffler, it sounds like the dampening material in it is just jumping around and sounding bad

 

[Mr. Win]

damn thats some money.

 

[zmepro]

you can do it alot cheaper if you you know someone who welds. and make sure you get all the right stuff. i didn't and it cost me more

 

[Mr. Win]

[zmepro]

Is the ractive header a PLUG and Play adaption or do i weld or what is the deal...
somebody help me i dont have anymore hair to rip out

 

[zmepro]

im 99% sure the ractive is bolt in, all you need is a MIL if you wanna avoid a CEL, but if you wanna do it right you want to get a o2 sensor bung behind the 2nd cat and exetnd your 02 sensor wire.

i wrote about it before, i feel the MIL is a bad idea as it makes the computer run randomly rich (the o2 sensor controls the a/f ratio) i know my car ran pig rich with an MIL (70 miles to 1 tank)
