Aftermarket Header Dying Cricket Noise
 
So I just installed new aftermarket headers in my baby frs.
And everything sounds great. Turning on the car,driving and everything. EXCEPT when i press down on the gas to much it starts to make a cricket noise. I mean its not a problem for me but it is really weird to be having that noise that i didn't have before installing the aftermarket once:iono:
Would anyone have any idea of what might be causing this??

Cricket like the fuel pump cricket or what?

Well it did start to smell more like gas after the installation but thats probably just normal?

If its catless, then yes it'll smell more.

What I'm referring to is this high pitched noise that everyone calls either chirping or crickets from the high pressure fuel pump.

Or is it more like this clicking noise?

*Note this is supercharged and will sound different because of the supercharger whine.

Hmm...it's actually nothing like the videos.
It doesn't make any sound. Only when i actually step on the peddle to gain more speed. But normal driving you can't hear anything.

Check your install in case of exhaust leak maybe? If you have the stock front pipe it should smell the same no? I mean there's another car there
