PSE sound vs tightening torque

I'm pretty much convinced that the PSE sound of my car is affected by the tightening torque, at least, of the clamping sleeves for rear muffler/catalytic converter and the clamping sleeve next to them, on both sides.

Recently I installed an used PSE system on my 997 C2 and I tightened the screws without a torque wrench. I'm sure I put more than 23Nm (17ftlb) on the clamping sleeves's M8s. The PSE sounded too clean and kind of flat, imho. With the correct tightening torque, the PSE comes alive, it's more aggressive, more metallic notes...

Can anybody confirm similar results?
