Unhappy HELP!! Eisenmann Has to Heat Up?

hey party people, ive searched the forum, and i couldnt find anything...i know there is an exhaust thread...but its pretty much dead....

i was wondering, for those of you with eisenmann race exhausts:

does it take a while to get loud? i mean its really pretty quiet when its dead-cold in the morning, but after driving like, i dont know, 10-15 minutes, its gets to what ive heard on clips and what i think it should be...after a few hours of...spirited ...driving it is LOUD and i love it.

i was wondering if anyone has had this experience, or if my part is defective, so far I have assumed it was the metal heating up or something, expanding and getting louder...but i dont know. Any help or advice would be much appreciated, because it is under warrantee, and i want to make sure it isnt a bum part im living with.

it seems logical that the metal-expansion thing might be the case...but i want to be sure.

Thanks

Should get louder as you drive. Metal expands when heat is present.
