Berks HFC with nismo- rasp/rattle extremely loud -

nvdave04

So I had a custom 2.5 non resonated mandrel bent xpipe/mid pipe installed to my nismo muffler*which I got locally for super cheap** to which I thought it would help Eliminate the rasp/rattle coming from the HFC.. But of course it actually got worse!!! I was told that the rasp/rattle noise is due to the HFC is just to much for the nismo muffler. He swears he checked all seals and bolts and all were okay..

My question is the berks HFC causing the Honda civic / tin can sound or is the nismo muffler just sucks ***? I really do like the deep sound but the rasp/rattle is so loud and embarrassing!!

If it's the nismo muffler does anyone have a suggestion to which axle back paired with berks HFC that will sound good and not like a honda/tin can ?

I'm really really frustrated and lesson learned you pay for what you get but now I don't know what to do bc I already have the 2.5 xpipe/mid pipe so I don't need a full CBE.. Any advice would help thanks to everyone for helping me sleep at night ! I'm having nightmares about waking up and seeing a honda civic in my driveway!!
