    Default KA24DE questions...

    Did an intake/header/exhaust on my KA24DE in my 240... just out of curiosity, is all the popping normal? I know my Sol used to pop every now and then, but this thing sounds like a damn lawn mower or something lol. Just wondering if this is something that is common with a new exhaust/header, or something I should look at... the secondary o2 sensor had to go bye bye because of the header, so it's probably dumping in a bit more fuel than it should be... but other than that everything appears golden. LMK about the popping please!

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    Are you gonna be at the Athens meet in a minute? The popping is getting NUTS... it was cool at first, but now it's almost annoying. I'm pretty sure there IS a leak somewhere.. she sounds like a damn truck. Gotta get that looked at in Savannah... think it will help the popping too? If she had the turbo to justify all that noise it would be A-OK... but she doesn't... so poo.

    Damn... I have a feeling it's the gaskets at the header... we had to re-use the 13 year old factory ones because I'm a dumb dumb and forgot to pick up new ones before dropping her off over at Killswitch.

    well yeah but i mean you can tell if its that one usually just by sound but it also cant just be a small leak and sucking airn when it has blowback causeing the backfire but id say that would be a good start seeing how itys the old gasket

    Yeah my car leaks a little. I don't what it could be. It's too clear to be oil, so I'm taking it to the shop this tomorrow.

    Mine sounds like a truck as well. It idles at 1500RPM one day the next at 800RPM.
