what the hell's going on? it never used to do it. now when i downshift sometimes it makes a little blowoff valve noise and when i get on it it sounds like a turbo. it's 2.5 pre bent pieces mig welded no leaks that i know of full boar 2.5 chambered muffler and an apexi n1 muffler on the end. the last bend is just a sharp turn, i cut the pipe on an angle to angle the exhaust at the end afterwards. maybe it's that? i can't figure out where it's coming from :(

Did you recently change the exhaust and it started doing it or is there something else you changed recently?

it just started doing it randomly. you think a leak might cause this? i stood behind the car and had a friend rev it it sounds exactly like a turbo. it did it once when i downshifted from the afterburn it would normally pop or gurgle but this time it made a chirp like a blowoff valve. didn't do it for a week or so then it started doing it again. now it's all the time.
