did your exhaust sound different with the hi-flow cat?

me and my friend just put the megan hi-flow cat on his car and it sounded kind of high pitched, has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone know what it might be? any help is appreciated.

thanks

High Pitch as in high rev, Type R high pitch or Italian extoic high pitch? that might be a good thing

once the muffler breaks in it sounds alot a deeper takes just a couple of days before it breaks in and it should sound great depending on your muffler. i have the megan plus tanabe racing medallion and it sounds great. i love it

its sounds a lil different on mine but it is louder and flows better, but the extra baffling inside them instead of the catalyst and screening makes it sound a lil different. Its all good, trust me.
