The sound is gone and the smell is too...

My only concern is that is the bolts on the header ( the 3 on each side) come loose too easily with the given torque specs. I'll have to keep and eye and ear out to see if the sound changes again and also keep track of my logs.
damn I just got mine installed about two weeks ago. Now i'm worried and I've got to get the bolts checked.
