Default lts installed and q's....

did anyone notice a difference in shound after install? the main reason i ask is that it sounds like there is an exhaust leak, i have everything tight and it always sounds the same. just seeing if anyone has any info on this.

i'm almost positive ( but correct me if im wrong please ) that the sound you are hearing is your valves and the reason the sound is louder now is because the manifolds are much thicker and make it much harder to hear the valves, now when you install long tubes they are thinner and make the valve noise much more aparent.

You can check for leaks with soapy water; when the engine is cold.
