any possibilites?

could the front 02 make this thing sound like a damn subie? i put my catless dp on with a muffler delete and car sounded good, i left a red light and and some hard dick in a gt decided he wnated to go, matted it in first gear regular shifted to 2nd and it poped real loud didnt think twice well the cel poped on and it threw a p13e code cleared the code and it came off and on 3 or 4 more times well long story short after it poped it sounds like a wrx checked the dp gasket and all the obvious things and caint figue out any thing. hasent lost any powa so i dunno any clues?

cliff notes

aem cai with a k&n filter

zzp catless dp

superchips tune (for now)

 

thats not good for sure...
does the car feel like it has no power?

and what kind of balt do u have?

 

nope still feels fine pulls hard just like its suppoesd to

its a 09 ss tc

 

Subby sound is never good in these cars. Hope it's not bad.

 

I have a 09 TC, and I will say even with stock exhaust, it does have a slight flutter to it...reminiscent of a WRX but definitely not to the same degree. Maybe with your exhaust mods it's amplified that.

Maybe get us an exhaust clip?

 

il try well see the thing is that it sounded fine before it "poped" i dunno is there anyting in the resonator (sp)? to blow out possible?

 

was the car fully warmed up when u mashed it?

 

do u know what the code stands for?

 

there was someone else with this same situation on here, who was that? ask whoever it was.

 

yeah weres he at lol

 

Could have been a bad misfire possibly

 

but for it to sound like it all the time though?

 

Ah.....misread that part.....sucks man, hope you find out what it is

 

Sounds like you got in it a bit before your oil was at running temp and you started to misfire. Rather then just clearing the code you should've checked it.

I've noticed lately that my car sounds kind of like a Subaru at idle. It's just something I've noticed though, all my friends say it sounds the same as it has all winter.

 

Does it sound like its coming from the turbo area? With the hood open and the car on listen back near the turbo. Is it just as loud there as under the car? The downpipe still bolted tight to the turbo?

Possible that the wastegate is jacked up

 

ill check it wasent there a post were the turbo manifold cracked?

yes everytings tight no black exhaust dust any were under the car

at first i thought mabey the flex pipe cracked but didnt see anyting

 

do you need gasket when replacing the downpipe?

 

You do need a gasket yes. If you were asking if you need a new one, well that depends on the condition of the old one although it is recommended that you use a new one.

 

I once did a NLS while cold and started missfiring like crazy. Lost all boost and power and It sounded like one of the cylinders werent firing at all (subbie sound). Should have let the car rest for a minute or two, then shut the car down and restarted it. The subbie noise should then go away. Since your tuned, I wonder if the safety mode is removed?

 

So your not tuned for you AEM and K&N filter? Have you checked in any way to see how bad your MAF is skewd.

 

it wasent cold i had been driving for about a hour an half in 70 degree weather,

update this morning started it up it ws around 32-34 degrees out let it run for 5-6 mins left home going to work car sounded fine un till the rpms get higher thants when u hear it, at idle it sounds fine i dunno i tried callin zzp for some insite and havent heard anyting thing from them so i fighured i would pick the brains on here

 

this^^^

Do you have a gauge that can tell you your fuel trims/ MAF stuff?

 

it happend with the pos aem filter on it since i switch filters it runs better


to answer the question no im picking up the hp set up bt the end of the month and hopefully t will be solved
