question about hp/dc headers

i have sri, and exhaust system with custom midpipe.. 2.25in.

if i add a hP header.. would that increase the noise level?

'cause i like the sound... the way it is right now.

any comments/info would help.
thx.

the noise level is noticeable as the engine's rpm increases

lower rpm range: like 1llmatic stated - deeper tone

mid-high rpm range (vtec): deep with a high pitch as you reach redline

Will add noise volume, but the HP gains are worth it.

What header do you guys recomend?

I have Redvic's HP header and i love it!! It doesn't get louder, it gets deeper. Bass is the magic word.

Did you notice any power gain?

Did you install it yourself?

Yes you do feel significant gains with the hp header... Although you do loose some torque but is well worth the money... I purchased mine at Total performance source in Newmarket... They are also sold at Zorro's muffler in sauga... Bruno I'm gald your happy with yours!

Thanks Jayson!! I'm just not happy with the sound of my exhaust now that it's all screwed up due to my girl's street being flooded and water getting in my exhaust. If the sound doesn't go back to normal, i'm gonna buy a new axle back. But the HP header is by far the best header for our car. I think they run about 450 for the top 4 to 1 piece.
