@F1point4 - the rattling you here in the videos on low RPM take off is very likely the over-pipe - I have the same header, same configuration, using P&L's rev 1 overpipe and when I first did my install I had that problem - usually when turning left from a stop under hard acceleration. The group buy thread has some suggestions on things to try and get that noise minimized, I know P&L is working on a revised version of the overpipe as well, so you might want to talk to them for specifics on what they are changing. HTH!

as @phat 86, @TouchMyHonda, @circuit_jerk @Dustin@Dynosty, @eibelat and countless othersthat have driven my car can contest my car definitely makes no noise like that. I usually tell them to drive it like it's their own car to get a feel for it. I work a double all day today at the bar, and have a company picnic to go to tomorrow. What I will try to do is take several measurements on the angles either sunday night, or monday. My header came from the same jig is everyone elses. my original the jig was built off of was sent to Gmookher and I had a new one built for me at the start of the group buy.

I'm not sure I understand why a couple header designs have the odd routing that redirects exhaust flow in front of the engine before returning towards the rear of the car.
It looks like a lazy redesign from companies using exhaust setups meant for turbo applications, but I'd love a better explanation. |

They used the header design wih the intent to create something modular that allows for an upgrade path to their turbo kit. If you have this header they will take the cost of their turbo header from the cost of their turbo kit pricing.

You're right, go buy a borla.

The other option is make the primary pipes coming off the engine loop around which some of the other manufacturers have done like Borla but the piping diameter is smaller. The other thing the loop allows in the P&L and FA20 headers is room for a cat. Last edited by xwd; 08-24-2013 at 06:41 PM. |

@F1point4 Definitely the overpipe. That's exactly the sound mine was making before I swapped the stock overpipe back on. I have the same exhaust as you.

With as blue as the Borla pipes were, is your car running a little on the lean side?
