7K and getting noisy!

I'm just about to hit 7K with my Works and suddenly she's got a lot throatier and noisier... has anyone else had the same with theirs? I'm loving the sound and I guess it's totally normal but just wanted to check!

My 'S' has just gone over 7.5k and I think that the exhaust is abit louder - pops more, now drive everywhere with the windows open!

My works started to make a noise yesterday which BMW say needs looking at it is a raspy / vibration noise that only happens during tickover. It is not an exhaust noise, so my car goes in on 12th August - that is the earliest they can do it. Just hope they didn't mess up when fitting the works kit 4 weeks ago.

MCS JCW EB/B 210 Bhp lots of extras!
