It’s weird that everyone is complaining out the rasp on this Cadillac but when it’s a Mustang everyone loves it.
Hate the Coyote rasp. It's the only down point of the engine.
I like the sound of some mustangs but yes. It is still easy to overdo it and have a nasty sound
Agreed
Not a big fan of rasp full stop but yeah, a raspy F430 makes more sense than a raspy Phantom
Exactly. Mustang rasp is fucking terrible
Northstar engines secretly are some of the the best sounding motors ever made, I owned a ‘04 sts seville and that thang sounded better than most muscle cars of that era when in full wot mode.
and some of the shittiest engines too
@@RemainNameless614 once you get pass the head gasket issue it’s a perfect engine
lol all you guys dont even realize Cadillac fixed the head bolt issues for sts after 2004, this model is bulletproof and can last a while
@@caddilove3949 exactly, I never had a issue with my o4 sls, however I bought a’99 deville in pristine condition it only had 70k miles and it had the head gasket issue, once it was repaired never gave me any problems
My 06 v6 sounds pretty wicked and she will tear some shit up and get sideways as all hell if I let her. And I’m sure she will rip old Seville’s to shreds.
this thing is a beast of a motor. it throws u back into the seat so hard u almost get a concussion (at just 1.5k rpm, barely tapping the pedal). it feels aggressive yet silky smooth at the same time, almost like an overpowered electric car. i will love this motor to death.
first time i gassed mine hard i almsot shit myself lol pulls way harder than i thought
@@Milez.Bikez24 no cap bro mines sitting rn cause I'm getting the radiator done but man when I gassed mine it hauls ass no cap
Theyre so fun im bout to sidepipe my 96
ya fr ! my neighbors complained to management about it being parked and had to take the exhaust off ...i started it and holy hell that bxxxx is so GD loud lmao they going to be sorry that they complained to management Pretty sure all i got to do is replace a shift solenoid or the TCM i was debating just leaving the entire exhaust off lmao
These are really nice cars if you know what to look for and know how to fix them. Northstar engines are actually very good, all you have to do is switch the aluminum head bolts to metal ones from an ls engine pop on new gaskets fill w coolant and your set. I have done it.
Yep hidden jems
off what LS
@@insomnia4154 4.8 or some 5.3
The head bolts are NOT aluminum. They are steel. The LS bolts are steel as well.
@@toothrestorer6588 depends on what year the cadillac is. First North star equipped cadillacs used aluminum head bolts before switching to steel in early 2000's. That's also around the time they fixed the head gaskets switching to a better material to seal and last longer.
MAKE THIS TOP COMMENT: Northstar performance provides a head bolt kit that completely removes the head gasket issues, it's a "bulletproof" kit.
You don't need that kit on a 2005-2011 Northstar as they fixed those issues
They already fixed the gasket issue in 02 and nobody in their right mind still has am older one lol.
@@goyslop4289 My dad has a 97 sts with a Northstar but it has blown headgaskets as they all do
@@goyslop4289Wrong, 2005
Nice, but really needs a set of Vibrant Bottle mufflers to take the harsh raspy sound out of it. But to each their own.
Rasp is good. Love it
In my opinion the rasp makes it more agressive
I have 06 STS4 V8, i agree the rasp just sounds tin can. I replaced resonator with two 18in glasspacks 3.5. round. mufflers with 12in. 5.5 round glasspaks to take out the rasp. Gives it very low tone rumble. It's loud, only downside its one of those cars thats louder then fast. Kinda like you hear it then you see it, and expect it to be moving faster then it is for how loud it sounds. Like a loud truck for instance.
That sounds hella clean n better than hellcat!.!.
Luv it! Sounds great to me! I would go through a full tank in a day running around sounding them pipes all day!
Well Done!!
That caddy will definitely wake up the 55+ senior trailer park 😂
I love that sound! I want to do the same set up as that but I’m worried about getting pulled over for the exhaust being too loud
Worry about it AFTER you get pulled over. Also, don't be the guy that floors it everywhere you go.
Oh Hell No! Yeah, this is way too quiet!! You can barely hear this car and sounds no different than a stock 1987 Cadillac Cimarron, and that's a damn shame 😒Owner should have just run open manifolds, which is hands down the best setup and provides optimal back pressure and reduced used car lot financing APR on these 2006 Cadillac STS 4.6L's.
I was a mechanic and I worked on a few Northstar Cadillacs. They always sounded really good, even with stock exhaust, but they were North star engines. Could have been a good engine if GM didn't do the bare minimum to put it together
Boi it’s not too quiet for this one
@@robertramj136 you best just sit back and enjoy the show😂 he does this in every video. I'm hoping exhaust addicts shouts him out in some vid
I love you
@@nickvannoord1800 who knows when Ryan gonna stop like maybe never or soon
Sounds amazing. This thing would be loud with headers
Northstar performance makes headers for them 😏
Of course they got a check engine light
Back in 2006, I would see a few of these drive by me after school. I was born in the 90s, and still remember the old Fleetwood Brougham and DeVille sedans. Much more chrome than this car! Lol! Nostalgia and childhood, man.
1:09 lmao 🤣
They fix the head bolt issues in these by this point
Yea that’s why I want the one in the 2009 Buicks
@@dunno7237I’ve got an 09 4.6 Northstar in an Cadillac XLR .What is it that makes the 09’s better than the other Northstars?
I don’t like it, too loud. But thank you for uploading as I was considering doing this. I think I’ll do resonator delete add X pipe and then to muffle the sound somewhat glass packs.
Love it
So I had one with gibbons mufflers and it sounded amazing and it’s not a “slow” car I was keeping up with 350z. And would auto cross it
Sounds awesome. Best part of the video had to be the nuclear bomb explosion after he said Northstar
I would turn that bad boy around and grab some performance mufflers... but as long as he's happy 🤷♂
An X-pipe on that bad boy would give it that sport sound to it
It sounds raw I love it probably cleaner sounding dang I wish I could’ve heard how it sounded before you took it all off 😢
I have a DeVille and work for Cadillac atm, they don't really have a sound, just a whoosh of air.
Yes sir thats how its done. True duals+ straight pipes + V8 is perfection. Got a similar setup on my Caddy
It's too clappy to sound really great if you ask me
WE didn't ask you...to be honest!
@@BobSmith-mc7uq 🤣🤣
Need one for a 04 deville or similar have you done one?
Heck yeah
have y’all done exhaust work on a toyota tundra 4.6l v8? Do they sound good with a muffler delete??
I’d go at least a super 10 or those small vibrant bottles. Had a super 10 on my 2014 4.6 tundra and it was just right.
Yes we have many videos of different setups that sound great on tundra’s
How much did it cost to do the exhaust like that
How much would a setup like this cost
The mask just adds to this video lol
Did he make it to the end of the block before coming back? Hard to make a Northstar sound terrible but mission accomplished
Sounds good kinda
LMAO!!!!! EXACTLY my friend!!!! Sorry but this sounded like complete SHIT!!!!!!!
All that noise and didn’t go anywhere 🤣🤣
Someone didn't approve of that mid-resonator delete. 🤣
F'ing cool 😎!
Sounds mean!
An pipe like a x-pipe or h-pipe would make it sound 10x better.
Sounds great at idle n take off but too tin canny or watever at the higher rpms
😳🔥🔥
??? : How much drone you want??
!!!! : YES!!!!!
That check engine light though 🧐🤔
Right 🤣🤣 exhaust is more important than the engine 🤣🤣
its obviously gonna have one if its straight piped🤦🏾♂️
@@mudshotit not true I have straight piped my Oldsmobile Aurora and the check engine light never came on 🤦🤦. Clearly there are other issues going on. Smart ass
Y’all think it would sound nice wit 2.5 pipes with a x pipe and something similar to glass packs
Needs an x-pipe and some mufflers. OHC V8s usually are just too much strait piped, especially true duals.
I agree. That exhaust flow NEEDS to be equalized. It sounds kind of weird.
This engine is DOHC. There is literally no aftermarket for this car.
@@michaelscott7706 There's a performance site called Northstar Performance that is all Northstar Performance Parts. You can build quite a performer with these blocks.
@@ragintaurusmusclemercury7023 that's the site where they sell the headbolts n serts for the Northstar.
@@michaelscott7706 They also sell header flange kits so you can have headers made to fit the Northstar plus performance cams and performance tunes.
Would've been better with an X pipe
Nice work guys
I’m only looking at this video cause I’m grabbing one then flipping it😂so mid muffler delete it is.
Got that classic sorthern F-100 farm truck sound. Not subtle, and you are going to HATE the drone on the highway.
Where you located at
I haven't seen one of these in a while. They make 320 horsepower and has a little pep but they are money pits. They would be good performers if General Motors didn't screw up with the head bolts on these engines. They were too short and didn't have the right clapping force to keep you from blowing head gaskets left and right. The worst things about these cars are the fact that the starter is under the intake manifold. Got to take the whole top end of the engine off just to change out a starter that goes bad. I fixed one before. Never again. This one doesn't sound half bad if they add an x-pipe but I still wouldn't buy one.
The starter is the north star 🤣🤣🤣
@@crazycooterMN 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
My dad has a 99 eldorado and actually the headbolt issue was only on the 97 8 and 99 year northstars but those northstars are bitches to do just about anything on my dad changed the heatercore in it with covid which he had to tear half his dash apart, and he not to long ago also had to change the water pump which he needed a special tool for which he didn't use to get the old one out. He used a screwdriver and a hammer the guy at auto zone told him he was crazy when he seen it all ground up, the tool still ended up barley working
GM fixed the head gasket issue after 06.
True! That northstar motor is crap lol
Don't forget to press off the traction button on the console next to your arm to spin tires.
should have been in the shop to take care of the Engine Light problem first .
That thing needs some resignators like right now,,,, sounds like a 1978 f 100 straight piped pickup truck
Some what now?
Well like car just not that exhaust system owner but it's there Caddy so think Borla setup might have been better tho
We need a true duals or xpipe on a 98 to 04 cadillac seville sts
Try finding a K body Cadillac. Lots of them are either garage queens or clapped out or dead all together.
How much would this be anybody know
Straight piping the exhaust is usually a sign that the car will be in a junk yard within a couple of years.
He said v6 but the video says 4.6 v8 lmao
Loud & slow af
That's a shame how that owner did that caddy!
He thought it was a charger 🤣
Sounds like a nail gun shooting a steel roof
How do they pass emissions with a straight pipe? Can you still pass with a “straight pipe” if you keep the cats?
Yes
That pull was bad 🤷 wasn't going nowhere. But I like Cadillac's
If it ain't fast make it loud right!!!!!!
Love u Ryan but come up with some new material
He said “ v6”
Oh hell no!! Sounds better than my open manifold 1999 Honda civic sedan with a blown head gasket and no rear windshield. He really ruined that car
Need x pipe
Just sounds like the exhaust has fallen off. Needs a pair of glass packs
Kinda sounds like a 5.7 Hemi.
Not a fan. Needs a deep throaty muffler of some sort. Sometimes noisier isn’t always better.
X pipe then it will great
Did you say v6😂 honest mistake
Welp, owner made that car slower with "true dual". They need X pipes.
That chop is worse than a Harley. That sound exists because of its pipe length per cycler, without any explanation chambers and pressure balance between the manifolds. Its pressure waves are fighting themselves to get out the pipes creating a negative effect on the scavenging. I bet it's slower now than stock.
It didnt go nowhere
Poor caddy turned into a clap trap. SAD!!
V8
美国佬也经常认错车 哈哈哈😁
Growls......
It claps 👏 too much. Maybe 2.5 inch pipe would reduce it.
You called it a CTS... DON'T EVEN KNOW YOUR CAR😂
Ahh yes the gm version of the coyote but kinda ass compared to the coyote
To rasp
Exhaust is too long, should dump just before the rear differential
No thank you
Shit sounds horrible🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sounds......not good.
Loud and slow😂
Caddys aint gotta be fast. You in a cadillac. Its all bout that class. And now he got some roar to make it even more fun
Just like ya mamma!
@@chadchaddingtonflexington8415 he's in an old ass Cadillac with a check engine light and raspy sound😂 nothing classy about that
@@FullSendIt584 older cars are way cooler than new cars. And I love exhaust rasp, the louder the better. A Caddy will always be a Caddy
Yo mamma
Sad day when a V8 sounds terrible
Lmao u always get the cars wrong. V6 and sts lolololol
Too bad the Northstar is junk
Definitely not a v6
So you turned a luxury car into something it will never be (a muscle car) producing just a loud annoying car. Wonder when that engine light came on?
I have a 2010 DTS and would never think of hacking it to pieces like that.
Bravo
Sorta agree here. I think that if you want an exhaust on one of these, it virtually has to be cutouts instead of a permanent modification. No point in having a loud Cadillac 24/7
then why did they make a CTSV then? 🤔 just a thought
😔🧠👎🏾
that sounds like shit..........
Sounds like crap... just sounds like a cheap exhaust job on a chevy small block... oh wait it is...
