Thank you Cre, on my red one you can't even hear it with the hood closed. My black Supra as you have seen in the video is another story.

Well I am happy you chimed in cause I was going to put the Plenum back on and then try that washer thing.

Anyway, mine started suddenly on the black one so I figure I might as well pull those cams off and take a look.

Will look those terms up when I get to that. I am putting a big ol Fat can on my Red car now. Will go take some pics for ya.

Anyone know what size can this is? What Brand? No markings ion it and I got from some kid in a parking lot for 10 or 20 bucks. It has a real deep throat sound. Low budget 101 here ....will do for now. I got that black aluminum strap hanger from Home depot plumbing supplies, a few clamps and a hacksaw and I seem to be in business. Have a couple things to seal up cause of the old pipe not being the best but I think this will work out fine for now. It seems to be what everyone is putting on these cars and lord and behold I have one in the garage already.... go figure that!

Just trying to make it through WV Inspection

Full Throttle Thanks for posting we must have been posting at the same time. Yeah a Video would be great! Thanks !
