Give a listen to my exhaust and tell me what the random “blowing” sound is coming from exhaust. You can hear it better near the end of the clip. Something is definitely not right.

if thats still the stock exhaust, your car is fine. Mine did that ALL the time. Seems like its something with the factory system. Aftermarket ones never make that noise, plus you have the same mods that my car did it seems.

sounds like a build up of pressure being released. some sort of resonance that causes it to pop.

in the clip you mostly hear engine noise from the front of the car. I was recording by the exhaust.
