no weeds as a temp fix? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Santos · 05-26-2010, 01:06 PM

so I really like loud cars which is why i really want to finish up my exhaust setup right now it is just hushpower axle backs, but plan on kooks 1 7/8 LT catted and H pipe but i am really impatient and want to just get the no weeds because its cheaper right now. So i need everyones input on what you would do.

I have noweeds and love them, I have corrupted my fellow camaro buddies and now they are getting them too...it really makes the car sound vicious....not that, that is a bad thing

BigMatt · 05-26-2010, 11:12 PM

IIRC there was a 15hp gain with the open headers

Watch the install video on noweed.net, at the end they show you the results of the dyno run. Or you can call and ask for Steve K., he's a great guy.

When the exhaust diverter is open i noticed the noise 'vibration' coming back through the car also 'Butt Dyno' tells me that it has lost torque low down,as opposed to the exhaust being closed.However,the superb sound emitted far outweighs its negative points.

We need someone to independently test it on a dyno. Closed pull, half open pull, and a fully open pull.

Any takers?
