Default 1 7/8 Kooks vs. 1 3/4 JetHots

My old setup was JetHot LT's and a local custom dual X-pipe with bullets

12-3-05
1.703 7.572 91.07 11.906 113.40
1.775 7.640 91.49 11.961 113.67
1.787 7.635 92.21 11.960 113.65
1.676 7.524 91.44 11.845 113.59
12-9-05 Best with current Stealth cam and Yank SS4000 setup
1.627 7.431 91.44 11.740 113.74

New setup with Kooks 1 7/8 3 inch ORY and Hooker catback (No cutout)


1.777 7.577 92.35 11.857 114.49
1.697 7.444 92.93 11.702 115.44
1.659 7.458 92.03 11.754 114.54
1.702 7.481 92.02 11.770 114.47
1.646 7.358 93.36 11.607 115.40
1.646 7.349 93.12 11.575 116.51

So, I'm very happy with my Kooks even after the problems

Next mod NW 90 TB with Bo White ported Fast 90 intake

I like threads like these! (recently purchased 90mm intake, 1 7/8th kooks and true dual setup.) Can't wait for next spring!

So I would stop waking up my 11 week old son everythime I leave for work at 5 a.m.


It's still kind of loud at start up and idle in the morning, I'm going to look for different exhuast tips to see if that helps.

I figured it would be loud, just wanted to see if there was any other reason.

Kooks 1 7/8 are beautiful. My dad bought a set for his car and we held them up to a pair of 1 3/4 jet hots which is what I have and there is no comparisson. I have some pics that we took, I will post em up soon.
