It will sound like it is out of the valve cover but be deeper in the head.

Didn't you have LTH's installed, it could of came loose, it could be that??

My cobra hissed all the time until I retorqued the passenger side header bolts, went away.

We do have the headers on. They said they were strapping it back to the dyno an hour ago but haven't gotten any new news.

Fingers crossed! Hope this makes it all worth it.

Well at 4 he was strapping the car down but hasn't answered a text since then. I'm scared to death to know why.

I sold my Z and am still glued to this thread. I hope it all turns out amazing for the trials you've been through.

man I feel for you! can't wait to see it finished for you.

after all that's happened, will anyone be able to replicate a kit? haha

The car only made 3psi so we decided to take all the pipes off and start fresh. Under the drivers side headlight we find this gem! A new coupler is being overnighted. The shop that did the pipes has a great reputation so I can't believe they did that BS.

Eek! Was that a torn coupler? A coupler in a coupler? Maybe they were expecting it to collapse, so they put that around it. But this isn't the first time you've had problems with the pipes they made you right? If so, I'd just say that whoever made your pipes was really eager to leave for the day. At least you found it!

Oh snap!

JWillis72 01-06-2016 12:31 PM

It's a coupler in a coupler! Yes they used work on my Audi but not after this crap.
