yo whats up everybody, im not sure if this is the right place in the forums to place this topic but i have this werid sound coming from my car, i started getting it after i installed my MMW headers, its like a sound that u would hear coming from a honda, i dont know, here is a video of the sound, the sound that im talking about is in the first 5 second of the videos u dont have to watch the rest of it, is there anything i can do to change the sound??

Sounds like the dreaded ricey buzz. I'm guessing that you've got an aftermarket exhaust too, since the header + exhaust combo tends to wind up like that (the only reason I don't have a header myself). Anyway, from what I've read here on SL there are two solutions:

1. Have a custom midpipe made for your exhaust, with a large resonator installed (I don't recall the ideal size, search around for people with full exhaust setups for their advice)

2. Attempt to find a header + exhaust combination that doesn't sound like that. It's a tough thing to do, since you're basing your purchase primarily on what people on the internet say and sound clips that never sound truly accurate. Plus, you've already bought a header and exhaust, so I doubt you want to try to sell those and buy new makes.

I'd go with #1 if I felt like putting my money toward that, rather than option 2. Good luck with it, do some research, and I hope you find a solution!

 

do a search every header does this you need a 30" resonator in the mid-pipe.

 

i dont have an aftermarket midpipe, i still have the stock, i have the headers then and stock midpipe the my axle back exhaust, i dont that ZPIracing sells a midpipe, should i talk 2 them??

 

Go to an exhaust shop and get a 30" or so resonator installed. So far that sounds like the best cure for this. If you run the header with the TRD axleback it sounds like @$$ without a large resonator.

 

no ZPI. go to a muffler shop get a custom midpipe with 30" resonator. its done. thats what you do. GO NOW!

 

ewwww, RICE!

please get that fixed ASAP!

 

I HAVE NO MODS BUT I GET A BUZZING NOISE ON SECOND GEAR IT COMES AND GOES ANY ONE ELSE HAVE THE SAME SOUND

 

weird, but take it to the dealer!

 

aight thank you everyone
