I've been chasing this sound around on and off since I installed these. I finally got a good clip today, can anyone chime in on whether this is "exhaust leak" sound or "thin-walled header" sound?

I wonder if it'll get the green they sell other Toyotas in, the Supra always looked good in that color.
