Well when im shifting at 4000+ RPMs thats a light sound of air release coming from the bottom of my CAr. I just recently had an ITR header installed and now when im shifthing i hear a blow out valve sound??

It's an exhaust leak. Put on a new donut gasket, and make sure all of the bolts are tight.

Other then it sounding like junk, their isn't really problems with having a exhaust leak. The exhaust leaks you have to watch out for is on the head, that will warp stuff..
