can you elaborate? "annoying noise" is subjective, is it like a rattling?

It's your exhaust sound! That happened when I changed exhaust on my other vehicle. I thought something was wrong but that's just the way it is. I got used to it eventually.

Is it a constant hum in your cabin while driving at freeway speeds or while under engine load? If so, that's cabin drone and completely normal. You can get silencers, custom mufflers, or just swap to something a little more conservative like Tanabe.
