Installed Megan headers and AEM short ram today. Do I have a problem?
Hello all, I installed my headers and sram today. I didn't really have much of a chance to try it out on the way home, so when I got home I put the car in neutral and tried to rev it to hear what it sounds like.
After revving it at 3000rpm I decided to take it up to 6000, the problem is that the needle stops revving past 5000 and bounces back. Is there a rev limiter for the car when it is in neutral? Or is this a problem?

Is there any difference by a) installing the headers and intake at the same time or b) installing one and letting the ECU adjust and then installing the other?
I think it wouldn't matter because you have to reset the ECU anyways, but can someone assure me that it doesn't matter?

Reset the PCM. It shouldn't take 3-5 days to feel the difference. That's only with the pulleys. In my case, I felt the difference with CAI and headers right away after resetting the PCM.
Have fun.
