Hi all,
Quick question. Recently had a full stage 1 kit put through my LS1 VZ SS.
Picked up a good amount of power from it she definately has more punch, however it doesn't sound like any LS1 I have ever heard after stage 1 upgrade.
Took it back to where I had all the work done and was told that the "rattly" noice I can hear through my exhaust is "valve noise" is this a thing?? The bloke took all of about 10 seconds to come up with that diagnosis.
A few issues after the work. My car now sounds like a George Jetson car, sounds like it is sucking in air from somewhere other than the OTR box. When it back fires it makes a rattle sound and I might be going mad here but it sounds like it's backfiring along the exhaust not out the back. Also my Speedo is out by 10ks!!
Anyways if anyone has any ideas I'm all ears. I would like if there are any issues to have them fixed with the guys that did the work but maybe I need to take it somewhere else for a look see.
Any help muchly appreciated
Michael.
