I also took it to Cutter Mits and they told me that my back pressure is low because of the hi-flow exhaust causing that noise 
or a exhaust leak. So in other words my car was there for 7hrs and they didn't even know what was causing the noise or basically did nothing to the car and just took it for a spin.This is the worst dealer I ever had to deal with(no type of customer service there and the wait for any service, wow. Basically it has come down to me being scared of them working on my car.

more than likely, your E/M gasket is leaking. My recommendation: check the torque settings to see if they are tightened down good. also, if possible, if you want to find the leak fast, from a cold start, spray super soapy water on where the noise is suspected to be. if it bubbles, you can find it. dont let it burn off. rinse the soap off.

i think im gonna buy some IC pipes from Redrum and hopefully pick up an intake before June then that should be it performance-wise for me. i got driveline to get the shipping down to $200 for the trunk.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I have done all the mods myself so far. . I called Kaka'z Car Care and they told me $100 for a exhaust leak check. Wow, is all I could say to that. $100 to hook up a smoke machine?
I decided not to do the boost test since my AP tells me I am peaking out at 27.7 and tapping down to 19-20 by redline. So I should be good in that area (hopefully).
