Default Header question.

does putting on a header make the valve chatter louder and more noticeable?

... valves and headers are 2 totaly seperate things n are only connected in the way that they're part of the motor.. ur stuck w/ valve chatter... only way i can think of it going away is w/ a heavier oil weight... wouldn't recommend it tho.

headers will make your car sound raspy.

yea im aware of the rasp. and i run amsoil high performance oil 100% synthetic 0w-30. and its not coming from the back of the car like rasp. i just compared a tc with stock header to mine with tsudo header and the valve chatter is louder. was just wondering if the header maybe amplifies the valve chatter because no cat or some. i have no rasp ive taken care of that problem. just not sure why my valve chatter is louder than tc with stock header. anyone know?
