Did my car de-snork itself?
Recently I have noticed a small change in engine operating sound that wasn't really very apparent at local street speeds. Today on the highway I wound it up and somewhere over 4000 a new sound came on strong, really loud, not open muffler loud but a power roar.

I've never heard a de-snorked car so I'm guessing here. My car is a 2005S with 70,000 miles. Stock muffler. Car was in for service to replace secondary air pump about 1000 miles ago.

Thoughts?
