several issues

first off, the exhaust seems to have a bit of a rumble, more so than i remember. from what i've put together it could be a blown cat or an exhaust leak. it's not even a horrible sound it just sounds more like a sluggish sti. it's pretty loud when i have everything off and the windows up but with the windows down it seems to blend in with the engine.
second (just started happening a day ago) after i turn the car off there's a clicking noise coming from the exhaust. at first it's pretty rapid then it just slows until it stops.
that's about all i can remember for the moment. i have to take the car to the dealership anyway to get my sunroof fixed but i figured i'd try and see what i'm dealing with before i do.
i drive an 06 ss/sc with 13,900

Second one is normal, it's the metal cooling. All SS/SCs do it.

ya my 07 ss/na does the ticking and my brothers 06 ss/na and my other brothers 06 ss/sc do it too.

i've got a rumble that i've been trying to pin point its really bad on the decel and just blends into the motor when accelerating.
