Default Is there something wrong with my car?

well today i got up and drove my car to school and notice that its much louder like theres a hole in the exhuast or somthing but i check and its fine..

i have a 1995 gsr and before when i hit 5725 the secondary butterflys would open and u would be able to hear them seeing how my exhuast is quiet as hell.. now you cant hear the secondarybutterflys and the car is much much louder i dont know whats wrong with it could anyone help? i dont have any mods really just a intake and a exhuast and both are bolted up and fine.. any ideas? it runs fine and seems as if vtec kicks yet no secondary butterflys or anything.. and yes i have let my car warm up .. does this have anything to do with an oil change? i have to get one asap.

check your air filter (make sure it's tight and clean) ? check your exhaust for cracks? oil level up to par?

LOL you just sounded like my brother...
took a long trip and when he came back he was excited that
his car was louder when vtec was kicking in....

opened up the hood there it was a broken air bypass valve....
so the intake had a straight pipe no filter
