Normal with LT's. Sounds kind of like an air leak.

I kinda had the same noise that I could faintly hear at idle while the fans weren't running. Now that I have the LT's and ORY on and no muffler, I can't hear **** unless it's idling at about 600 then it's quieter and can faintly hear a ticking type noise.

i think it's because of the thin walls of the primary pipes.

I dunno. the gauge on the tubing really is pretty decent, correct me if I'm wrong but I think it's almost 13 gauge (.095"), probably not much less than 14 gauge though (.083").
