No smell of gasoline in the cabin, or even I stand behind the car.

if you get a gasoline smell in the car thats the first sign of a gas leak somewhere... i'd get that checked out. The only ventilation to inside of the cabin should be the two vented (filters) underneath the windshield.

too raspy & loud. So, my setup now is stock headers, stock mid pipe with resonator delete, & Eisenmann race rear muffler.

So you got rid of the headers?

Did anyone show that a different muffler had different sound?

One question, are the SS headers all equal length? And could you post a video before and after the rattles? My mid pipes rattle too but idk why. I want to see if it sounds the same and if you find a solution, maybe i could Pull your ideas

It really is. You can read up all you want about how to please a woman, you can look at all the diagrams in the world, but just like the clitoris, you won't know what the hell an apex is before you actually find it.

Hi kiwi29, yes, the SS headers have equal length.
I traced down the rattles & they came from the resonator. You can try to delete it. That fixed my rattles problem.
Good luck!

Sounds very good! I already deleted my cats and resonator. The rattle for me seems to come from the pipe section pre cats. Aparently, they're double piped and I'm going to have my muffler guy weld them together so it'd stop rattling and clunking. And thank you!

Interesting... everybody wants headers for the n52. Most can't afford Supersprint so are waiting for a cheaper solution. Ad the one guy that did have them took them off because they were too loud, lol.
