exhaust whistle after golf tee mod

I tried the "unplug method" in the trunk and started to hear a whistling noise from my rear exhaust almost immediatly. My car is now back to stock and the whistle is still there. Not a big issue but annoying.

Any comments ?

it's that wooo hoooooooooooooo....

anyways, you shouldn't be getting a "whistle sound" just by a golf tee mod. check the vacumm lines and do the mod through the tube, not by unplugging it through the trunk.

How does the whistle go?

Does it go, "woo woo!" or "WOOO WOOOOOOOOO?"


thats the plug in the E93, should be the same looking for E92

Leave it in means, don't take it out of that compartment, just leave it there
