New Exhaust question

usmcking3 · December 29th, 2007, 02:06 PM

I got the Flowmaster American Thunder exhaust for my 2007 V6. How do I make sure my car doesn't have that ricer sound to it at higher RPMs?

you buy a V8 thats how. our cars will always have that "ricer" sounds at high RPM's because its an even firing engine and its missing 2 cylinders thats all there is to it, and there is no way around it. just drive under 3500 RPM's and your good

EDIT~ i just saw you have an 07 4.0L, its going to be quiet anyway so you wont really have to worry about it

Is there anything I can add to help it out a little. Like headers or a CAI or something?

l/t headers would be louder and add some power too. if you have emmision though you will fail with l/t headers

usmcking3 · December 31st, 2007, 12:09 AM

You know a good site to pick up a pair of those headers?

tjames · December 31st, 2007, 03:37 AM

here you go

Mac Performance - performance accessories for cars, trucks, and motorcycles

usmcking3 · December 31st, 2007, 03:43 AM

Sweet, thanks TJ. You

tjames · December 31st, 2007, 03:47 AM

no problem man.
wait!!! i just saw that your in california.... if you get l/t headers you will fail emmissions tests! so unless you want to swap them out before you get tested(big PITA) i would recommend not going with l/t headers and keeping the stock manifolds

Its cool, I'm moving back to Oklahoma in a month or so

If you come to Yucca Valley, theres a guy here that passed one of my buddies who had a 85 Bronco with just headers... I think he paid him $50-75 extra for it...

you would have to have a tuner to clear the code and tell the computer to ignore it

usmcking3 · December 31st, 2007, 04:06 AM
