Mine resonated 18" has a rattle and a hiss when accelerating and decelerating. any reason why? Are they not compatible with FI applications?

hiss is normal on decel. but if its on accel you may have some loose bolts.

You shouldn't have any issues with forced induction, just might be a little too quiet for ya

The hiss during deceration, 100% normal with for the VQ. As for hissing or the rattle during acceleration, be sure to start from the cats on back and retorque each of the nuts/bolts as it sounds like you may have a connection point that's a little loose. If you can, try to avoid doing this by yourself and have someone hold the midpipe section up while you allign the flanges and torque for a better/tighter fitment. The most important section is between the axel back section and midpipe as they assist in alligning the canisters.

First trip to the dealership this weekend since installing my non res.
Watched through the window into the maintenance area while 4 of the mechanics stood around the car while another guy revved her up a few times.

I guess they dug how it sounded!

I couldn't have put it better myself. Thanks Lance.
