Exhaust loudness

I guess it's the summer time heat and humidity, I feel like my car's exhaust sounded louder then it was. Might be just my imagination but everytime I step on the gas, it has this huge Dodge Hemi exhaust sound. I read in this forum that the sound of the AMG exhaust is not loud enough but to me, when i went by the little side walk ice cream stand and step on the gas, everybody turns to look...I think since I took out the 2nd cat, the sound is more distinctive. Anyway, I was wondering if any of you guys have the same issue of having the exhuast louder over time.

I am actually very please with the sound as it is lately as I always think that no matter what I do to the exhaust (besides taking it out completely) it never had the V8 sounding.

E55
Mine sounds fine. Secondary cats delete, resonator removed. It's only loud when under load, or under my heavy foot. Heehee.
It's been this way for a year. Sounds the same. You might have an exhaust leak near the muffler.

Might be...whatever it is just hits the spot on just the correct sound I want it to be any louder I'll have to check on it.
