I just got a Greddy header installed, completing the I/H/E to my car.. Is it normal to have the VTEC crossover sound QUIETER after the install of a header!?
It was somewhat quieter after I installed my GReddy as well. I don't know what could have caused that. I'm guessing because the exhaust is flowing with less turbulence, the engine breaths better causing the engine to not "strain" as much. That's my thought but overall, I love the header.
Originally posted by a1andres I got the header installed at a shop and left behind the installation instructions.. what should the bolts be tourqued to?
factory spec.

Definitely check the factory spec before you retorque them, but if memory serves correctly, I think the instructions said 23 ft/lb. I can't really remember, it was over a year ago, but the number 23 jumps to mind.
Just give the shop you had them installed at a call and ask if they remember what GReddy recommended.
