You can see if you are leaking or have holes by watering your car to see if inside gets wet.

What year/car do you have? Hondas/Acuras arent known for being silent, but if its really loud, thats not exactly normal.

1) Check the outside driver's mirror mounting points for tightness & damage-- make sure it isn't loose or out of position.

2) Slip a piece of paper into the closed door and run it around the door frames to see if there's a spot where the paper gets loose to check for a bad door seal.

3) Wipe down the weatherstripping & door seal with 303 Aerospace or silicone lube-- if the noise decreases, it's excessively dry weatherstripping.

G/L, and welcome to AZ.

Adding an aftermarket exhaust will surely solve that problem.
