I believe it's normal. Thinner piping will have more of a raspy whooshing noise.

You're hearing exhaust flow!

Ceramic coating and/or wrapping will decrease/muffle it to a degree. I don't recommend wrapping this header, however, due to the clearances. You won't be able to get a tight wrap in many places around a single pipe.

They will come to find the sound soothing like the flow of water down a stream in the country side.

I love the sound. Just also when I first put mine on I had a similar concern.

Have you guys tried fitment of the intake air scoop on an edelbrock supercharged car? I'm interested in modifying to fit mine.

I believe you would have to trim a bit of the top portion for the LTR, and trim the side for heat exchanger hoses. Otherwise, it'll fit!

Mike do you know how to get ahold of someone from Ace? I have a few questions and don't feel like polling the masses here. I'm pretty interested in trying out a full header back system on our shop track car.

Unless you speak fluent Taiwanese... @CounterSpace Garage is who you will want to speak with. Matt (literally the only white dude there, who speaks Taiwanese) is no longer at Ace.

I have the full ace catalog on my car minus the hood scoop. What do you want to know?

It's getting close to where I'm about to grab the A/350 + ACE SSFP + ACE I/O Ceramic Coating + ACE DT (Fixed for Edelbrock SC on a MY17 running strctly on 92 octane with the TRD catback attached).

How much WHP/WTQ will I gain through this setup? *Crosses fingers*

Highly dependant on the stickers you add in the process.

I have enough stickers already. All of my stickers add up to somewhere around 50bshp to the driver. It's definitely a MUST when you're wanting to pack as much power as possible; especially when running a NA build 😎🤙

Are your stickers genuine JDM? Maybe just cheap reps that provide just half of power
