OBX headers without tune?
the sound difference is so minimal, its not even worth mentioning... plus i am also on a messed up muffler so really there might not even be a difference... no performance difference
So, If I do as I plan, and go with the OBX's with unequal y-pipe on stock cat and cat-back, what will the sound be like? Everyone's saying the sound will be "bad", but I don't understand exactly what it will be like. Does anyone have experience with unequal y-pipe sound? I would think performance would be almost exactly the same, and unless the OBX's that are technically for the 3.5 are in by summer, I'll be going with the ones for the 95-01 that have an unequal Y.

there is somethings you gotta understand with this forum, things will be excessively exaggerated, e.g " my FSTB made so much of a difference i take corners at 300mph", " this same header thing we are talking about", " a certain coilover is so sorry that it broke in two and disappeared" people do hype the sound of the unequal length Y based on what they hear... i do believe sparks now have unequal length 3" Y, let him post a video of how it sounds with his cattman exhaust
that is by far the truest statementbut idgaf, i was thinking the same w/ obx headers & idgaf so ima get them & see what happens "to one his own"

Good to know though that these'll be good.Does anyone have any ballpark estimates as to the following:
-What will the gains be with OBX headers and stock exhaust?
-What will the gains be with OBX headers + test pipe + 2.5 inch cat-back?
-What will the gains be with OBX headers + test pipe + 3 inch cat-back?
There is a sound difference between an equal length y and an unequal length y. Check out my thread...

Check out the vids on post 20.
(I still plan on doing that I said in the thread, just waiting to get the flange welded)

Haha, oh I know Good to know though that these'll be good.
Does anyone have any ballpark estimates as to the following:
-What will the gains be with OBX headers and stock exhaust?= 10-12whp
-What will the gains be with OBX headers + test pipe + 2.5 inch cat-back?=15-22whp
-What will the gains be with OBX headers + test pipe + 3 inch cat-back?=20-30whp

With a tune, some people gain another 10hp.
