Exhaust manifold gasket has been long gone. haven't replaced yet. just pulled it apart to diagnose. I believe it's been causing the excessive engine noise.

2023 500, Dont have great recent pictures. Primarily visual mods. nothing performance based.

After vs Before. What y'all think??

I hear ticking in the engine with heavy throttle. doesn't happen even when low throttle high-RPMs. any ideas?
