Question Semi sounding. have question?

I know our drivetrains make noise but I was curious if anyones got continously louder as time went on. Its to the point that now when I accelerate its starting to sound like a semi. I really can only hear it at the low rpms and up, but after a certain point, all i hear is really the engine and exhaust. Part of it may be b/c I beat up the gasket when I replaced the lower IC pipe gasket with the BR setup. I had the gasket bent in several areas trying to get it in even though I still installed it. Maybe part of the whistle is from that. Any ideas? It runs fine other than the extra decibel from the drivetrain. Thanks

You will need to do a pressure test to find the leaks and seal them. The leaks will introduce Lag which in turn will give you ****ty gas mileage. My car only whines form take off on first gear and goes away after shifting to second gear.
