Very nice...loud as heck though. I wouldn't be able to stand the noise on a daily basis. Plan to dyno the car anytime soon?

He just wanted to get a few runs with open headers and doesn't plan on keeping it that way. He dynoed and posted in the 4th gen forum.

Wow it sounds very quick... but then again sound can be very decieving. Dyno or timeslips would be nice but I'm sure he's heard that 1000 times and this isn't going to change his mind.

Hmm, what kinda cams is he running? Love the sound, but I dunno about the lumpy idle. Be interesting to see how his car runs without open headers.

He's running the JWT cams. He can adjust the idle, but he likes the lopiness of it right now. He has been running with the full exhaust for over a month, but wanted to get a couple vids of his car with open header.

The headers include the Y-pipe, but the cat is not connected.

Have you ever herd a muscle car at idle?
I love the way that sounds. You should watch Gone in 60 seconds. His Maxima sounds like that Mustang
Ok maybe not, but they sound so damn Nice

Yeah the sound is kick ***. If he likes that he might think of putting a cutout right before the cat? Though the american muscle idle on a maxima doesn't sound as good as a V8. But still, it kicks ***.

Damn, it sounds like a V8 at idle, I love that.

But to someone that doesnt know ish, they would think something is wrong.

How much HP do the cams and headers add?

The cam makes the car sound awsome. I downloaded an all-motor civic with a cam sounded just like this. His car sounds like a Formula 1 ca rin the first video, weird.......

That does sound awesome my se-r doesn't lope like that unless I unplug the IAC to get the base idle to 700-800rpm with the cutout open.

Wow it sounds like a Ferrari, or something exotic. Try not to make the idle so lumpy, raise it up just a little so it doesnt sound like its dying. Luv the sound when it revs in the second video

Not even close, It's hard to capture the bone rattling sound on film. If I go start up mine, my neighbors get ****ed. The whole car viberates from the powah (and thats with a full exhaust).

still fun, but it can get annoying after awhile with the idle like that, or at least it has with me.
