Well it's about time!

Really? I thought it would sound better with open headers? Or louder anyways... What makes it sound like crap?

There are videos in my journal somewhere not sure exactly what page, of what it sounds like with open headers or just 1 resonator. Loud doesn't mean good always. It just sounds awful and so unrefined. 1 resonator is so-so, but there's still a lot of rasp when open/closed.

Battery ran out since it was 95 degrees in that dyno room and we couldn't get many fly-bys. There will be more though I promise.

Thanks!

SS V1 Stepped Headers
VAC Ultra-Light Pulleys
Dinan Intake
Custom Evolve Dyno Tune

DynoDynamics at FMU in Chicago. Very poor conditions, but 318 is solid.
