I need a second opinion.

I have it running , just wanted to see if it sounds ok to someone other than me.
It's a LU5 car converted to carb. I just dropped the tank to clean it so this is with only the cat and short section of pipe . it idles smooth , but still a tad high.


Forgive the amateur camera work.

Start and idle:

Re: I need a second opinion.

Thanks, it will be getting a muffler again just not that factory stuff. It not as loud as I thought it would be. My titan is LOUD with just the cat and no muffler.
My main point of this was to see if you guys heard something that doesn't sound right.
