Lol... Well I dont have that problem. My exhaust is stock so Im not bottoming out at all and again, my car is only like this when I am driving. If this was an exhaust type thing then it would be loud all the time wouldnt it?

Not necessarily, an engines exhaust tone will differ from idle, to free revving, to revving under a load (driving)

Hmmmm... Well like I said, I never saw any holes of any kind or anything but who knows I guess... Oll have to try and sneak a peek again when I can. Do you know of ANYTHING else that can cause this sort of behaviour?
