Hey all,

I installed my new ARH headers this week. The one thing I'm most concerned about is possible exhaust leaks (for the obvious reasons).

I've only had a couple of heat cycles so far, but I was wondering if there is a good way to test for an exhaust leak?

I'm not sure if I have one or not. To be honest not really sure what it would sound like. Add that with the fact that I'm obviously getting way more noise out of the car (and new noise) and I'm just not sure how to know what would be a leaka and what is normal.

Is there an easy way to test for a leak? How do I know what sounds are normal and what aren't?

I do notice that the garage is more fumy when I start the car/back it in, but I'm guessing part of that is increased outflow gases and the break-in of the cats.

Thanks for helping a noob.

I had my dad hold some rags over my tailpipes and had my brother give my car a couple quick revs while I was under the car. If you hold something in the tailpipes you should be able to notice a leak.
