Also, for more feedback, I have the induction small pipping into the cabin open (I tried plugging it but prefer its sound) and in my experience, the TRD is so load you cannot hear any induction sound at all coming from that pipe. As a matter of fact, you can't hear anything completely at all other than the exhaust sound coming from the back. It overwhelms the cabin, the the tire noise, the engine noise, wind noise, pratcially everyhing, it's just a huge booming sound that even makes my ears ring (I have very sensitive ears though)
I wonder what other's experience is? especialy induction sound.. do others hear induction sound?

Well the leak could be at the frontpipe to midpipe section- did you reuse the donut gasket? Or it could be where the midpipe connects the muffler towards the back check those places.
The intake induction pipe does make it a little loud in the cabin now you have an exhaust which also contributes to some noise so that could also be why you may feel its really loud. Also, exhausts are known to be loud when they are new after a few heat cycles it could tone down possibly. You should wait and drive 100 miles or so to see if it makes any difference. Just throwing out some ideas...
