Post TriFlo exhaust decided to change its tune today

This new exhaust on my car is less than 4 days old and it decided to change its tune today. There is now a deep rumble in almost any gear, kinda like you hear on Mustangs. This wasn't the case with my previous B&B Triflos (which had to be replaced due to some drunk idiot who hit me in the rear and bent the tailpipes) and I had those for 3 months! Has anyone else noticed this change?

Have you checked for leaks or holes on the exhaust?

I'm gonna have Motorbahn check it out on Sunday when I go to their raffle. They put on the first set of TriFlo exhausts and maybe they can see if the dealership did anything wrong when replacing it.
