    Hi guys
    Might sound like a stupid question, but i was driving home from tafe today, and my exhaust is about 20% louder than it was this morning, anyone got any ideas why?, i live in melbourne and it was warm today so i don't think it was the temperature.
    Cheers Jonesy

    might maybe possibly just be something u didnt notice before.
    On first startup mine is a hell of alot deeper, once the motor warms up it quietens down a bit.
    there might be a hole in the system somewhere

    I reckon you may have blown a gasket.
