Default Odd sound

Wet sucking/bubbling sound (like water boiling mixed with someone sucking through a straw) on startup. Appears to be comming from under the drivers side front/mid section. Goes away once the car is warm. Condensation in the exhaust manifold? God help me: turbolady?

Default maybe your Borla leaking?

I get that, almost a farting sound, on startup. It's my crappy band clamps on the VM1, and the condensate leaks out and makes that noise for a couple minutes or so. It's not really audible inside the car, but outside yes.

Default Exhaust leak.

Mine's doing the same thing. Haven't had a free moment to fix it yet. Did you reuse the stock exhaust clamps? They should still work.
