Alright, so i've had my custom cat-back on for a few weeks now and since the weather has started to change everytime my car comes to idle or is shut off my muffler or exhuast piping starts to make this "tink" sound every 10secs or so...i'm kinda concerned. Should i be? any feedback will be great.

Nothing to worry about...heat disipation!
(I think that is the correct terminology).

Basically, your muffler/exhaust gets hot, very hot.
When you come to a stand-still and turn everything off, you're hear a tink, tink, sound which is your exhaust cooling down.

This is very common on motorcycles, especially Harleys.

yepp yepp! once the exhaust has broken in a little more, you wont here it when you are stopped, but you still will when you shut it off.
