Are "fartcans" being replaced by "noisecans"?

Anybody notice how mufflers are getting noisier? We have some youngsters driving around revving their engines until they backfire through the muffler. A lot of the performance car mufflers are noisier as well. The Mustang guys go out in a group and all you hear is BBbrrrapp! Maybe i'm just getting old and grumpy. lol.
