Exhaust question!

I recently put on a Magna-Flow exhaust and really like it, but it seems to be getting slightly louder. Is this my imagination or will this happen with an aftermarket exhaust? The system is only about 2 months old. Any input would be great. Thanks!

Don't think I have a leak. Maybe just getting broke in.
