So, instead of cutting 8 inches off ( Probably a certin section of the pulse ) couldn't you just figure how long a pulse is, and then add that much more?

Any way to quiet headers down without sacrificing the flow gains?
I just ordered my RB header and will be fabing up custom exhaust behind it.

I run dual pipes from the engine back, and the sound inside the car is quite reasonable.
I used tubing from RB. I don't remember the wall thickness, but it was MUCH greater than standard exhaust tubing.
