I think that is stock rpm. Very unique sound with this exhaust. Sounds like an Italian car.

Because their hand built pieces of art these headers have to be seen in person they're incredible the quality craftsmanship that they put into them. Had a CL member get them installed at Lexus of Larchmont NY few yrs ago.The sound was incredible but so was price at nearly 10k for headets and exhaust.

Doesn't sound like rev cutoff was hit.

I wouldn't even do that (free rev) to your car.

^^^^^^^^^^^
If you're interested "about Novel tune", why title your thread "Novel Exhaust"?

10K for an exhaust that bottle necks down to a single pipe, no thanks.

Great pics of the headers. I loved the look of my PPE's vs OEM (i guess anything would look better than OEM), but these Novel takes it up a notch or so. Definitely a piece of art. Almost a shame to have them installed where you really dont see them. Id want some perspex and mirrors installed in the engine bay so i could see a reflection of them haha.

Price is crazy though. Looks great, sounds great but you definitely couldnt brag about them being a "bang for your buck" mod.

The video doesn’t really do it justice. You have to listen to these in person to hear the pitch. Lots of people would argue it’s not worth the $ and you can get EL headers for way less and better performance but it’s really what you desire. The car is plenty quick for me and on most days, the car doesn’t really get to stretch its legs unless it’s on the track.

I’ve been more than happy w these and one of the reasons I have not seriously had any impulse to change cars after all these years. Also met a ton of good people on this forum starting w WeaponF. Thanks for the recommendation on the Lexus or larchmont again. Top notch car guys.

Honestly, I been saving up for the Novel headers, I have seen enough videos of the full Novel set up, and then combinations of the Novel headers and other exhausts. I am sold on it. The sound is exotic like an Italian v8, very impressing. Have fun with yours.
