Maybe there's a leak in the system somewhere? Maybe try tightening up the bolts?

haha I love my HKS... so quiet its almost stock. If you wanna look for grumbling sounds, you might wanna remove your stock resonators. Its somewhat loud but not too bad.

You need a muffler shop to do it, there are two resonator, a small one and a big one. If you have an aftermarket exhaust and want more sound, I would suggest taking out the smaller one.
