LET headers and Resonator Delete

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o8njdGKjgrI

Very deep and solid sound, not annoying at all. I would recommend this to everyone.

As most of you might worry about the sound, I can assure all of you that it is not loud at all, the video amplified the sound by a lot.

I was surprised when i first started the engine, seems like nothing has changed. You can only hear it well from 2500-5500rpm. Otherwise, if you were very gentle on the gas, you can hardly hear it

The headers made a big difference.

Yeah, it really does not sound that loud. It's louder than my exhaust with the resonator in place, but when I had the resonator off the sound wasn't as deep as this one. Makes me want headers for my car.

The car feels very different now, low end pull was mild, (revs from 2000-3000) but without delay.

After that, the car just pull you all the way till redline. I had hesitation on the gas at high revs as it never pulls that way before. I can't imagine when I have the pulley on.

This feeling recalls my experience when I drove a testarossa long ago.

Do you have an ECU tune? The hesitation in high RPM may be due to running lean.

Sorry for my English

I mean I was afraid to accelerate further at high speed as the car pulled much faster than before.

I have not had the ECU tuned yet, pending for the pulley. Yes prob need more fuel at high end.

Thanks
