hey all, over the last few weeks the note from the left hand exhaust on my ss has changed dramatically from the right side.it is now a much tinnier sound with a flutter about it. the right side is still the deep rumble its always been.is the muffler stuffing up or do i need a balance pipe installed or is it something else? a bit confused,what do you recken it might be or any remedy,s. thanks.

Has it been on long? They have a two year warranty.

intake leak left hand side only.... or dodgy exhaust which is much more likely
to check for a leak did you block exhaust with a rag the left hand side??? if no try this...

if you think its a muffler faulty then take it back to where you bought it... if no
warranty at least they should give you a discount...
