I did not get the whistle noise until I installed my spacer. I can deal with it though.

The whistle starts to get really annoying after a while. This is what I did to make the whistle disapear... First, I got an exhaust, and then I got high flow cats. This doesnt really make the whistle go away... but now my exhaust is is so loud, I cant hear any annoying whistling anymore

it might have always been there. but the spacer makes it really loud.

before i installed the spacer only i could hear it. passengers would always tell me i was just hearing thing. but after the spacer you can hear it from the next car over.
