Default Burble/Crackel isn't as loud anymore... Help

Hey yall, when I installed a catless xpipe on my Z51, I noticed a lot more burble when downshifting and engine braking but just yesterday the burbles suddenly became much quieter and even non exsistent. Anyone know why that might be?? Thanks!

Out of curiousity what year is your car?

I have a 2019 and I don’t know if the 19 has more burble than other cars but I’ve found reading on here that somehow I’ve been blessed with what may be higher than average burble with no mods.

What was the weather like for you today?


I’ve found the colder and dryer the weather the more burble the car makes.

My car will randomly burble more well and sometimes not at all. Its just how the car is .. (2015) if you really want consistency get a pop tune.

The random burbles has a lot to do with weather believe it or not. Also, it is true the 2019's burble more. It's in the tune and GM did change it for more burbles in the later years. Especially in the Camaro ZL1. I add this for customers often.

I have wondered what creates the burbles. Ninja, what setting are you changing to get more?
