do you have any cel's?

It should be quite noticeable, and the quieter the exhaust the harder it'll be to hear. With an intake and cat-back it would be unmistakable.

Im not to sure about old ecu's. Maybe a pm6?

You should be able to feel a slight pull a little before 5k....if you dont have a short ram or something, go borrow one and strap it on. If there was something messed up with the solenoid, or wiring, you would get a cel

PM6 is a CRX Si ECU...which would be the wrong ecu
