exhaust is making a ringing noise...

i put the flowmaster 40s on my 3.8L with the stainless z28 style tips and when its cold, but now i noticed it does it alot, it makes a ringing noise when i hit a certain pitch on the exhaust. it sounds like its coming from the tips. anu suggestions?

its like a high pitch noise. im tryin to think of something to compare it to. it kinda sounds like when you hit one of those little metal triangles for music. i know thats a cheesy example, but thats all i could think of. lol
