ive noticed in the last few days that the exhaust note is not sounding anything like it used to. originally it was full and tokyo drift sounding :P

now though, sounds like it crappy exhaust. hard to describe it but its not as thick, it sounds kinda tinny, and raspy.

im wondering if somethings happened inside the back box . ive inspected it and theres no sign or any sort of blow.

i'll try and record a video of it later tonight

btw my system is standard except for the muffler. i dont know what make the back box is, i cant find any markings on it. the car came from japan with it.

am sure it has a blow somewhere, these holes can be very small and hard to find, also cat could be damaged

Sooner or later the fireballs claim the backbox.

Just keep driving it around and it'll probably sort it's self out (Seriously!) My exhaust sounded dodgy for a few days a while back and a little bit of wadding flew out but it's fine now, although admittedly a little noisier than when I first bought it :D
