When cruising around its fine but when I put my foot into it,it makes a horrible noise like a whistling/sreaching noise. The theory behind it is that when the air gets pushed through the rear muffler at high volume ie (boost level) the air is hitting the split section and making these such noises.Design fault has been admitted so the muffler is getting sent back (twice) and now getting a Magnaflow muffler with twin 4" outlets.Let us know how you go and has anyone else had this problem before?Cheers,Rob-T6XR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet no one has that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
