Default confused..

Hi peeps, there is one thing that i'm confused with... and thinking some of u could definetly help me...

I've changed manifold and downpipe, from japspeed.. after fitting them , there is no more deep scoob sound... The sound is very metal, and even sounds like the headers leak somewhere.. So i bought a new set of gaskets and went to a different place to do it again... Still f***ng same... ..
I'm thinking if some of u are free tonight, lets say at about 20.00 , and could have a look at it , i would be very pleased...
I'm in harrow, could travel some where not too far..
Thanks

If you've changed the manifold you will lose the "Scooby Burble" as the standard manifold is a unequal length manifold which why sccoby's make this noise, I'm not sure what you've bought but it is likely that the one you have bought is more of a equal lenght hence you've lost the noise.

Most Newage JDM Scoobs 05 onwards have equal lenght manifold and don't burble like their UK Cousins, Sounds more like a Honda

Post up in the techincal section you will most likely find your answers there .

Actually what wories me is the leak sound there, there still is burble sound ,( it is unequal lenght) not as on uk cousins ,but still, i think because i have a huge HKS backbox there. I haven't heard the scoob with changed manifold, that's why i wanted someone to have a look and to listen.... Anyway,, will search for some info... Tnx GUV

Ok ,i found my problem...... My manifold is with the built in up pipe , there is this soft place , so that's where the leak comes from, i've read a topic from andy forest that these f***g cheap things brake down after 2000 miles .... so this is my case... Japspeed , my friend has got the same one, everything is perfect for him, unfortunatly not for me....
