coils cracking up/valves floating! :woohoo:
running 1 through the gears while doing that at a stop sign sounds much better though! :woohoo:

Ok, it must be a kz thing. They all sound great! and each one is different.


Here is my old engine.. Im thinking of using the same headers on my gpz motor and maybe ceramic coating them. Anyone have any idea what the muffler is in the second video I posted?
