Alright I have had my system on for about a month now and it keeps getting more and more "raspy" I have checked the bolts to make sure they are still tight andthey are....I did notice a leak from the aft connection on the system, so I bought another gasket and replaced it...still not luck in fixing the "raspyness" Is anyone else having this problem with the megan setup?
At idle and low RPM's it is hella deep and sounds like a purring kitten but the instant I get on the gas it sounds like crap....Any Suggestions?
