louder exhaust after installing cams

How many of you noticed your exhaust got louder after installing cams shafts only. Its hard for me to say if its just the cams because the head was completely built at the same time. When it idles its loud as hell and you cant imagine when I do drive around.

Higher lift and longer duration of the cams will make each exhaust pulse stronger. This will make your exhaust louder.
