Increased loudness with 'Break-In'
It's a characteristic of straight through design mufflers with fiberglass or other synthetic material packed into them to chamber the sound rather than using chambers or baffles. There's a little excess material in there that gets blown out in the first couple hundred miles you drive it with the new muffler on and as this happens the decibel level will increase.
