dude, I can sell you a stock headers and wye pipe if you would like to revert back to stock. But I think the header install is messed up, or is resting on your frame. Or ORY is touching the tranny allowing vibrations etc

I'd agree. I had a weird vibration after my headers.. sounded / felt HORRID! It was as simple as a heat shield hitting the header. Check everywhere.. make sure its not touching the frame - etc.

I'd still check - Its probably something thats just so close... Mine was noise was only at high rpm's when I'd STOMP on it.. And the motor would flex it would then lean into the heat shield.. Does not take much for noise / vibrations to resonate
