You have a leak and its creating a pressure loss from the faulty installation. When you install any kind of exhaust you have to make sure that you tighten the clamps a little while after you install because the lubrication material burns off and it creates a leak. Go have the seals tightened and see if it stops then. PS: theres a reason you have a muffler, this not only keeps the car from releasing harmful gasses into the air and it keeps a certain amount of backpressure. You're better off keeping the stock setup both for the environment and for your car.

I took the car to the dealership for service cause it was time for an oil change they check out the problem and found out it was just a miss fire so the updated the ecu. And transmission software after that I haven't experience any problems with the Exhaust
