Hi all,

Had this occurance for a good while but ive decided to address it just to be safe.

Basically when i get to the higher rev's before changing. There seems to be a sound that i can only describe like a "buss-saw" it goes once the gear changed (up) and the revs have dropped.

I did notice that the pitch of it changed once i got a new S/S exhaust system which was straight through.

Cheers,

Steve

PS This is the X14XE 1997 corsa B
