Metallic tapping sound after replacing 4-1 extractor


 Share

Recommended Posts

I have just changed my factory extractor to 4-1 extractor. after changing I dont find any significant difference in engine power. However the engine noise is louder with metallic tapping sound when I rev pass 100km/h. Is this normal and what does the metallic tapping sound indicate? I have just changed my catalytic conver as well but retain factory pipes. Muffler was changed last year due to leakage issue.

Should be engine knock. Can say bye bye to your engine.
