Well if it was a cold start there usually isn't to much lope to them, simply because the idle is higher... Strap your exhaust on & let the idle settle down & enjoy!

I hope I love mine. I just shoved it in the motor 5 mins ago. Now time to re-assemble, do valvesprings, do the longtube swap, and let it rip! I can't wait!
