You do realize that without a cat on the header, it will make the car louder...

Yea I know but I didn't know it would be muscle car loud with popping noises. I'll take it to a shop and let them look at it

It's not a manufacturing defect. That's the way it's supposed to sound.

I'm in on the exhaust leak. Also - did you loosen EVERYTHING then tighten/torque EVERYTHING from front to rear?

Header > OP > FP > Catback?

Did you ensure a good seal from the gaskets? Start the car while underneath and listen for hisses/leaks?

Did you use anti-seize to be able to remove/adjust without stripping your bolts?

At this point, go to an exhaust shop. Cut your losses and pay someone who has some more experience in what you're doing. No offense.

P_say86 · 03-27-2015, 04:41 PM

Lolol I got it fixed. It was one bolt that I didn't screw in I over looked it. The sound is "glourious" lol and how I expected to be. Thanks for everyone who tried helping instead of "adding there 2 cents in" or making stupid comments
