Default Open Header
my cars in the shop getting the h22 swap done and i need the bottom end to the header. TE said the swaps dont come with them. if i drive the car without the bottom part for a lil while will this hurt my engine at all?? and how loud will it be.

It wont really hurt your engine, but your pocket b/c of tickets.

i always thought if you ran an open header it would mess something up in the valvetrain due to a lack of back pressure?

Nah I run open heads all the time and I'm good, so I'm sure you'll be fine with a header on there.
