Default Help I might be going crazy!

So I installed my invidia n1 with a 70mm tp around 4 weeks ago on my01

I don't know if it's just me or if it's a serious issue but when I'm driving at a constant speed below 4k rpm it'll sound kinda like it's bogging (not bogging out) but when I let off it goes away and while I accelerate it also goes away... like it sounds smooth again... It's hard to explain.. It's not the usual sound of an exhaust but I'm kinda getting worried.. It's been just my weekend car but now it's my dd since I got rid of my Other dd. Do you guys think I should just do a tune up?? I havnt done one in a while now that I think about it. Car only had around 52100 on it. I drive it maybe 5 miles a day since I only live a mile away from work. Input would be much appriciated. Thanks in advanced

are you sure it isn't just your exhaust droning? Some exhaust systems have a point in the RPM range where they sound horrible/resonate throughout the car/annoy the crap out of you.

Check your exhaust gasket up to the header, make sure its align and not leaking. Every exhaust I've put on the s2k has drone, it pretty bad thats why I got rid of all my aftermarket exhaust. After putting my stock exhaust back on, it felt like it was pulling harder(in my opinion ) I didn't feel any major power change when I went aftermarket, felt almost the same, thou it added lots of noise and headaches. Could be heat-sorke Give it a few more months and you won't even notice it anymore
