If the exhaust system remains stock, do New headers make it louder?
If the exhaust system remains stock, do New headers make it louder?
In general, if the exhaust manifold are swapped out for headers, of any kind, does the SOUND change, at all? Noticible? |

You will note sound coming from under the hood. It's the pulses from each cyl. exiting the head down the tube. The sound from the pipe at the rear bumper is quiet. Since stock mufflers are used the sound remains the same. Or REAL close.
It's not the header that really makes more noise, it's the muffler. |

Some people don't like the sound under the hood, but I love it. Find someone that has headers and full pipes and listen to the engine sound. I can tell more about how the engine is running by listening to it.
Rumblefish 360, you live near Brentwood? I use to deliver dog food to a big pet supply warehouse there. |

I installed a set of gibson shortys on my 2001 dak r/t and it actually made it more mellow. I use a delta 50 seires flowmaster 3" in and two 2 1/2 out. The muffler was on before I put the headers on.

Everybody's right.
Exhaust can be weird. I had a 79 bronco with a 400m engine, with single 2 1/4" exhaust. I replaced it with single 3" exhaust. It got quieter. ?????? |

Would that be Royal?
Tarrbabe;
Brentwood....about 10-15 min.'s away. Then again, Centereach is so named, so I read and heard, because it is the center of Long Island proper. So in a manor of speaking, everthing is close. However I don't allways feel that way. If you take King & Queens out of the pic. and keep it NYC only, I don't think it's the center. Note to thos who don't know...NYC is made up of 5 countys...or better know here as boroughs. Queens, Brooklyn (Kings), Staten Island (Richmond), the Bronx, and the famous skyline of Manhattan. (Another Isalnd ruffly 1 1/2-2 by 24 miles long.) If Brooklyn and Queens were seperate citys, they would be the 3rd & 4th largest U.S. citys respectively. People wise. Just a tid-bit. |
