I love sitting at the bar with 'the guys' telling stories, and nothing is better than starting out with "...I know this guy on the camaro forum, and you won't believe this....".
I see what you did there.

You know, it's hard to believe the exhaust deal was almost a year ago. Time goes fast.

You can type it out.

Mother ****er

We had it added to the auto sensor list.

And YOU mentioned that we better go with what Borla gave is in case they knew something about their metal header manifold material that we don't.

To which I agreed. I totally left that one in your court.

My memory could be a little fuzzy though. lol

Oh, and the thread I put that vid in only MC69 (Mister Twisty lol) said it sounded like an exhaust leak.

Now that we know, it easily sounds like that. But at the time we didn't.

R, tap your pen on a desk really fast and close your eyes. Picture the Camaro engine bay with a maggie on top. You have just replicated a supercharged L99 with an exhaust leak.

I think you were on your mini haiatus.

Actually, I said I suspected a header leak but dismissed it when the bolts were all tight.

My next step was going to be to swap the gaskets but then I decided what a great excuse for a cam.

Let me try and find the thread.

Might have been my blower install thread.
