Exhaust/noise issue assistance please

I agree with 86LX. But, I would also look for a leak. Based on your previous comments, it is quite possible that you have other leaks in the exhaust system with as much rust as you described.

Keep in mind, after-market exhausts...even mufflers, sound different. This does not mean that they sound good. Ever hear a little rice burner pass you with a big A-Hole for a tailpipe? They sound loud and make an anoying buzzing sound. They don't sould good at all to me. Compare that sound to a $1500 Basani Exhaust on a Mustang and there is NO COMPARISION.

What you may be experiencing is the sound of an exhaust that is just not pleasing to your ears. A good exhaust needs to sound good inside and outside the car. Many drivers add expensive exhausts and then complain about droaning sounds on the highway. Exhausts are complicated and chaging the length of the tailpipe can change the entire resonance frequency.
