Looks like you are burning more than just a little rich...either that or you have major blow by

Yeah, sounds good, but definitely a little rich.

Yeah my carb needs tuning and i'm too nooby to do it, so when my dad gets time we'll work with it

+ it was a cold day..but the car was warmed up so i dunno if that effected it

as for the exhaust, i don't know any specifics because it came on the car when i bought it

headers..is there a way to tell between longtube and shorts?
just straight pipes to the mufflers no X or H
and i believe the pipes are 2.25

edit - yep idle is high too, man you guys are good

if they are flowmaster..at the back of the case where the outlet tubes are there will be a number stamped in kind of a dotted format
