Default getting a high pitch fluttering sound after DP and CB install

twin 2 and labree splits with test pipes. I tried to get a sound clip of it but it's hard to hear without headphones but included it nonetheless. You can sorta hear it at the end of the clip. It's pretty loud in real life, any idea what this sound is?<ul><li><a href="http://s243.photobucket.com/albums/ff286/brodiejeff/?action=view&amp;current=VIDEO_042.flv">&lt;embed width=</a></li></ul>

loose gasket/nut on heatshield would be my guess, or your heatshield rubbing somewhere

Default its a leak...

with the car cold...


start it...

get under the car, and put your hands over all the exhaust joints (wherever there is a clamp, or junction). you will feel/hear the air escaping.

I have the same problem with my stock DP's because one of the flex joints is leaking.
