We tested on an 01 LS430 with stock cats and stock exhaust. There was no noticable sound difference.

Removing the cats or changing the muffler would make it louder, but the our headers bolt to the stock equipment. The stock manifolds are a very bad design, the choke down to about an inch in diameter. Ours have a 2.5" outlet. Torque increase was also in the 20 ft*lb range.

We will be at 15% off if we can get 4 more orders. Any LS430s interested? ~20 hp gains, with no noticable sound increase and bolts to stock cats.

1 more week to get in.

Could you post a higher quality version of the dyno chart for the 2001 LS430 that was tested?
