Default Greddy SP2 - What header?

OK, i've searched and read alot about alot of headers, resonators, different exhaust combos with different headers, etc.

So, now i just want to come out and ask:
Does anybody have a header with the Greddy SP2 that DOES NOT sound like a bumble bee fart can?

I gather that resonators can be added but i'd rather start with a header W/O farty buzzy rasp.

Thanks in advance!!!

Also, i read all kins of stuff about anti fouling and 02 fooling... are there any headers that DO NOT throw CEL out of the box?? Thanks again everyone!

one additional question.... i've never tuned a car before i owned a tC...

is "Greddy" pronounced "Jee - ready"

or "Guh- ready".... like is the G a "Gee" or a "Guh" sound.

As far as headers go, I would personally wait for another company to make one. There are a few out now but It seems to me that they were thrown together quickly to make a fast buck. The CEL problem is happing with every one of them, needs corrected with some sort of antifouler.

also, I say "Greddy" Grr-redy... lol

Greddy is derived from "great" & "eddy", since they are the product line of Trust that deals with forced induction (and general engine performance). Ironically Greddy has a line of strut bars, when it should be under the GREX product line.

I think the general consensus is that greddy exhausts are particularly raspy when paired with any header.

My stock exhaust is quite raspy with the header, but it doesn't bother me since I rarely get on it.

Obviously, resonators will help.

The least raspy seems to be the Megan Header... but you'll need a resonator for sure.
