 Check for leaks or see if it might be rubbing another part of the car somewhere.

It does seem a bit louder than others I've heard. Something sounded loose too. Is this exhaust resonated?

1. That rattle is something loose. Could be either a connection or a hanger, check both.
2. There is definately a leak somewhere. Which likely leads back to #1

I see the humor was lost in translation.
 That is the car coming off the ramps with no pipes hooked up. Essentially headers/cats. I was transferring the ramps to the rear.Good call on exhaust leak tho

Check under the passenger rear side to make sure that there is no bracket rattling against the muffler. I can to cut away part of the this metal for my CNT exhaust.

 Thought I'd have a little fun here with the vid. We've all seen what an F.I. exhaust looks like. Like everyone else says, top-notch, quality exhaust and kudos to Tony for putting out a kick-a$$ product

It was funny the first time I fired the Z up without an exhaust on. My wife came out of the house saying that better not be the new exhaust installed. The video doesn't do it justice....it was completley obnoxious in person.
As a side note, I have a buddy that has an old 240 with side pipes he built and it got be thinking...... |
