Are these things supposed to be loud? I am using them with yella terras and my car has a LOT of valve train noise.....especially after a good pull.

Mine sound about like I expected. I can hear the valvetrain more from underneath the sides, I suspect from the headers. The noise gets a little louder when it gets warmed up but that's about it. A really quiet valvetrain would be nice but it isn't noticeable from inside with the windows up.
