Exhaust Rumble

[Frenchie]

Have read somewhere that having ported headers could affect the exhaust rumble?

It gets a bit louder, as we have had ours done

I think its if you have equal length headers you will loose some of the rumble. Yours are unequal at the moment which is why it sounds nice

Have equal length, can vouch for the fact you lose the burble.

Does however give you a whole new sound, a little more raspy. At full chat, it sounds like a jet engine(honestly).

Laterial headers are not equal .
They are how ever more equal than standard headers so you loose some of the rumble

Sorry, just re read that. It doesnt mean that equal dont sound nice, just different

Ok,remember I'am non-technical(I'am an arboriculturist for gods sake),so does this mean if I have my headers ported they become equal/more equal? Thanks.

ported headers use the o.e cast manafolds witch are unequal hence the subaru burble.
from feed back from meny people not really a noise diffrence just power
