Thank you Chappy. I just wish my friend turned off the music and had the windown down to get the better recording.

Sound great, is the clip with the headers only or do you have an exhaust as well? Also did you notice any gains from the hearders (butt or real dyno) and about how much with labor? Any O2 or cat problems?
Thanks
Mario

First, my butt dyno tells me that there's now even tq and hp all over the rpm range. So the car really starts to pump power at higher rpms, especially after 4000. The cat problem should not have been there. cuz..(I hope cory and brandon don't read this message) I had the CEL lights because I drove the car when the second o2 sensors were not installed behind the second cats. It was a rainy day.. Guess now.. it damaged the sensors.. So I had the dealer replace them and the problem is gone.. (I am sorry kleemann USA for bugging with this matter for last 2 months, I should have known better.)
Well. it also give me thum thum thum noise when I let of the gas after quick acceleration. Kind of cool. ^^;; The dyno shops are starting to open in Boston now. So I will let you know.. The power run(2nd gear full acceleration) on the Gtech tells me about 30hp gain. I did both before and after run within 5 day at the exact same place with same mounting point for the G-tech. Let's see what dyno says.

Sounds great, is that wheel or crank HP? Also, did you do anything else at the same time with the headers? I gained 15whp from just software and I noticed you have software as well. Was this done at the same time? One more thing, the price? Sorry I have so many questions but you are the only person I have seen with a 55 motor with headers and no Supercharger.
Thanks again
Mario

I was on a spring break. Oops. You saw me? I was sitting by the window. I guess you saw me. I will tell her what you said. she will love it. The car will be outta states in a month now. So I am going to tune it up as much as I can. That's another reason I am not online these days. it's time to go to track. Come to the meet in April. Hope everything is going well with you.
