Central Maryland | Ever since i installed my S1L2's, I have noticed over time that the left pipe is becoming much more darker with soot; compared to the right pipe. Is this normal for the Vision?
I pulled both spark plugs and looked at them; they are not rich and both almost look the same. |

| I believe this is normal. Both headers marry up to the same exhaust/crossover pipe. The right exhaust seems to have more pressure since its flow is a str8 shot. The left side has to run thru the crossover so it's side has more resistance and a little less flow. Specially at idle. I'd guess since the lefts side flow is a little weaker it may have a harder time expelling soot. Just a guess. |

Central Maryland | Am thinking that you're probably right Jeff. My plugs look exactly the same; so no richness going on; within each cylinder head. Have noticed that I get more condensation as well; in the left pipe; probably due to the weaker exhaust flow. |

| I have read where guys say there is a plate in the exhaust to divert gas's over to left side.

One pipe darker (with soot) than the other - normal?
