Cheers CDiercks the car "burbles" nicely at low revs but is pretty quiet at speed,ive had cars with worn baffles/blown exhaust and they are generally a lot louder all the time the noise im getting is just as i get to red line and release the gas to shift gear.

The only reason I mentioned it is that I just replaced my cat with a premuffler and have the same sound. I forgot to get new gaskets, and installed it with the old worn out gaskets until my new one show up on my doorstep. When the engine is cold, every time I shift I get that exact same sound you describe. Best of luck as I don't know what else it could be.
