    Like the title says , my exhaust when under load , sounds like it might have a possible exhaust leak . I didn't know if that was just the standard sound or if mine might be a little loose at some point in the exhaust .

    I just kneel down by the truck and have someone rev the exhaust. If there is a leak you'll hear it.

    If the sound has significantly changed since you installed the TRD, it might be a leak

    I know....that's my plan

    I have the PRO so the exhaust is standard . I'm hoping that someone else with a supercharged PRO can chime in if they have had the same thing happen since supercharged .

    Not sure what exactly you have but mine is beginning to leak at the joint near/under the passenger seat at the flange. Mine is noticeable going up a hill and at 1000-1200 rpm.

    Mine is the TRD PRO but that is pretty damn close to what is happening with mine . My truck only has about 1500 miles on it so I would hope the exhaust would last longer than that :D

    Might just be an installment issue from the factory . Time to hit the dealer for a little inspection .

    I feel like my 2015 DCLB Sport has leaked since day one (no s/c or trd exhaust). It's faint, and it almost just sounds like engine noise but to me it's leaking. I'm at about 5000 miles and I haven't got underneath to diagnose any more.
