@Twitchy313 what you are hearing is probably just the gasses passing thru the header that is now thinner and has no shielding. Stock rest of the exhaust should have nothing to do with it (aftermarket exhaust will just make the whole thnig louder most of the time).

@Icecreamtruk Makes perfect sense, thank you for that! So you think that the loud rattle (leak noise) is caused by the no shield and gasses mix? What are the chances that i wrap them and that sound goes away?
