Oddball question of the day:

My exhaust pulsates strongly at idle. Is this normal?

If I hold my hand near the exhaust pipe I hear a rapid foof-foof-foof-foof and can feel the pulses of pressure hit my hand. It's pretty strong, much stronger than any other car I have owned.

Is this a function of my exhaust flow characteristics or an indication that something is wrong (leaking valve, nonstock cam?) or is it perfectly normal?

Just curious...
