No it just sounds like the xhaust is getting loud, I had it at 2 muffler shops and they agree.
I will be buying a used one, cant justify 500+ for a new one...
Manifold or gasket leaks at the manifold do usually give that loud ticking sound referred to, if you don't have that then I'd doubt you have a manifold problem unless you have some other indicator.
