headers should come with a warning label...

*warning may cause ear bleeding*

I ran a 12a open header. My ears hurt for after that and I had a ringing sound for over an hour.

Try running it with NO exhaust! Get out the marshmallows. The flames are really blue and pretty. Like 2 welding torches.

Exhaust temp sensor. Theres a dash light for the exhaust if it gets too hot. Lame.
