Boudy,

Thanks for the reply. I want to try some other way of fixing the "popping" sound because getting the side pipes off, coated and back on will be a monumental task. Probably impossible if I try to do this alone. I hope the design changes soon, and there is a retrofit available for current owners. My car now "pops" appproximately 5 seconds after I shut it off. This is really a surprise when you are climbing out of the car!

Bye the way, my pipes/headers have kind of pulled together now. So much so that the springs are really not under any tension. Is this normal? Do you think it would help to adjust the springs to again pull the pipes together?
