I too had a rattle sound (metal to metal) inside the cabin after I installed my headers. I made sure everything was tight and I had clearance all the way around. I even put rubber matting on the cross member (after FI install ); the rattle was still there. It was only when I did some work in my engine bay that I discovered I had left a wrench. It had feel between the battery and firewall just right. So make sure you have all your tools accounted for.

It's normal with the stillen cbe. I had this setup, there's a video onmy for sale thread. I just learned to either go slower threw that section of engine rpms or faster so you couldn't hear it as bad. Yes it sounds like $hit

Well this is a bummer, I watched your videos before ordering a pair and I guess I just couldn't hear it as much. I like the way your videos sound, but in person is just worse I guess. I was super excited for this set up but now it seems like a waste of time. I knew there would be rasp, but RATTLE is a totally different beast. Don't think its something I'll ever get used to. Off they go.
