I'm not sure but i think that is just how this engine sounds in high rpms. When i'm racing it makes a similar sound but nothing is wrong.

i don't hear anything bad...



does it sound like a sping is bouncing around? or maybe a loose screw or bolt that's jingling (but it's a deeper tone)?

because when u record sound files in the car the sounds sound deeper but if the HQ was more HQ it would sound like the springs r on some stretch but oh well must be because of the short ram... sounds sweet huh? but the whole run was from 0 to 70... slow but it could be because of the resistor mod that didnt do jack sht... does someone know if the performance x plugs into the same place?

It just goes one of the wires on the O2 Sensor. Its real easy to install if you bought one.
