Problem Identified and fixed after being irritated as hell after a 2 hour drive. I shook the heck out of each tube and was hearing a clinking noise Again I thought it was the pipe hitting the throttle body until I noticed It was pulled too far our and wasn't moving enough. So I look under the engine brace shake it again and finally... I always leave the bracket screws facing up for easy access well the second bracket on each side was just high enough to hit the engine support bar. I moved both second brackets on each side seen in but rotated 90 degrees ish to clear the support bar. Tightened them reinstalled the Support bar.

Test drove and a lot smoother/quieter. On to the other annoying little noises now. One major one down about 20 small annoyances to go



Thanks for the input guys I just wanted to post the outcome in case someone makes my mistake at some point!
