good stuff! i am looking to do the same mod myself. may i just ask, do the 4499's give you the low end torque? how does your power band feel now that you have fitted them?

it sounds a little deeper, it doesnt drone whatsoever, i have the redback exhaust with one muffler and had the resonater taken out and it is fine, alot of people on here told me not to take the resonater off because it will drone but it doesnt and it sounds horne as, could be louder though

does parts of your interior trim rattle due to your exhaust at lighter throttle applications and in general/normal acceleration upto the speed limit??

mine has a few rattles and it is a single muffler 2.5" press bent setup.

is yours a VCT or HP?

VCT responds better to 4480s, but the 4499s still give a nice torque increase but only slight power decrease or very minor increase only.

i think mine was alright to start with.. then the vibrations started..
even after having 2x15" subs the same vibrations didnt occur before..

wierd eh

they do rev alot easier dont they!
they sound even better with an exposed pod filter. just a deep induction roar!
but i went back to a K&N panel in the box due to wanting to keep it CAI not HAI lol

You are limited with Cams, because yours is a VCT. Speak to G&D or, I think Crow make a VCT Cam.

Good on ya!

not sure about VCT cams... G&D maybe the best people to have a chat to... I am not sure how effective mods are to VCT's. The 4480's do work very well with your motor, thats all i know about them

True. 4499s are still better than stock manifold - especially for torque, but not for outright power increase.
