My exhaust sounds awesome when the car is warming up. However, once my oil temp gets above 200ºF, I start getting strange crackling sounds from the VM3.
Here's how I get the crackling sounds:
1. Get car warm.
2. Get RPM's above 3000 in ANY gear.
3. Let car coast while in gear from RPM's achieved in #2.
Without fail this makes my car sound terrible from inside (don't know how it sounds from outside the car). I can't explain the noise any better than a "crackling" sound, which is not a very good description but it's the closest word I've got to the sounds that are coming from my S's *** when she's hot.
Any advice? Could be related to my air leak addressed in my previous question, no?
TIA,
