    Default open header on a prelude

    Yeah thats right, kinda. I have an exhaust leak in the flex pipe of my header on my '97 prelude. I decided to make a sound clip of it before I get a new header put on in the morning. **WARNING!! Turn down the volume on your computer**

    http://media.putfile.com/open-header

    Basically the hole is so big in the flex pipe that you can't feel anything coming out of the muffler. So this is just raw "big block honda" power . Its been getting worse every week, so I finally bought a new DC Sport ceramic header to replace it. Last week I was driving under a bridge where I live, there just happened to be a guy riding a bike on the road. I was in 4th gear going about 45, then dropped to 2nd. I scared this dude so bad he actually fell off his bike! I'm gonna miss that....

    I'll get another clip after I get the new header on and show how quiet my exhaust is supposed to be.

    wow I forgot how quiet my exhaust is supposed to be! I just got it back from the shop, this thing is so quiet you can hardly hear it with the windows down and radio off! I still have a little backfiring though so that's kinda cool

    lol i roed around for one day with just my racung headers on my civic... made it sound like a drag car...also when i first got my cvar i put a muffler on it for time being caus i couldn't afford an exhaust yet. any ways, i bought a set of cheap heaers and some fle pipe. put the flew pipe on to attach my Ractive muffler, put the headers on fucked up the headers due to a soft engine mount. any ways, i had an exhaust leak so bad that my car would spitflames pretty much when ever i reved it or geared it down hard, or switched a high rpms. lol i miss my flame spitting days though....but now i have all that shit fixed with new headers full racing exhaust....:d
    You know better; next time will be a ban.
