Exclamation video comparison - Kleemann vs stock manifolds
finally got around to recording a short video so you guys can hear the difference between the stock manifolds (sans resonator) and Kleemann headers (sans resonator)

Love this sound

Stock Manifolds with resonator removed

Dyno Tune with Stock Manifolds

Kleemann sound clip

What Kleemann headers sound like on the Dyno

and just for fun, our Mazda MX-5 (no muffler and Sport Muffler LOL)

and our '01 LQ4 Denali 6.0 with Corsa Touring Exhaust - selling soon!

They're not too expensive now. You can even buy a used one. I'm gonna get one soon. They're awesome but their stock mics are crap. Most mics never seem to be able to pick a cars real sound up, just some of it.
