Mines not leaking what so ever ive checked a million times already. Theres no rasp or hiss out the back of the mufflers but its easily noticeable from the side of the car or when the windows are open.
I noticed this as well. Standing behind it in my driveway all you hear is narly exhaust note that sounds awesome, but the second you get next to it its the opposite, just hiss. When driving with the windows up I hear it all the time coming from what seems like under the spare tire area.
