Ok so i did the passenger side exhaust manifold and motor mount. The last trip I took the exhaust got real loud. So after replacement the exhaust is quiet. But the motor is real loud at start and when you first take off its super loud. It does quiet down some but real bad at initial start....

Are you talking about a cold engine? They start with the timing advaced(noisy) and in about a mile or so, the cold advace timing drops back to normal. There is a huge sound difference.
