Muffler System Rattle
Just got the true dual system installed(Pypes x pipe and over axle pypes) with Corsa Muffler. I love the sound and I would recommend the Corsa Mufflers to anyone,but I'm getting a very noticable rattle when I go over speed bumps or really rough streets. I cant tell whether its the mufflers something else within the muffler system. I really need some input. Any ideas????

Did you use Pypes clamps? Check your mid pipe and make sure it's in there securely. I heard something too and found out the clamp was tight but not designed very well so the mid pipe fell out....thank God I was going slow when I heard it scraping. I had the mid pipe tack weld and so far no rattles.......knock on wood!

The other thing to check is how far back your mufflers are on the car. If the hanger is close to the support for the rear bumper it will tap it - mine had about a quarter inch clearance on the driver side and it was just enough to tap it, I could see the marks where it was hitting when it was on the hoist, but all was well after a small adjustment.

Check the exhaust pipe on the right side just in front of the muffler. Can be very close to the panhard bar. Even mine with single axle-back needed a slight massage to miss hitting it.

Thanks for the advice everyone. I took the car back toget it fixedin the meanwhile with no results. Afterwards, I called RPM Outlet where I ordered the systemfrom and they alsotold me about the panhard bar. I will take it back and try again.

Most members here have had very bad luck dealing with that company. I tried calling them back in the summer to order my set up from them but they either would pick the phone up and hang up or not answer at all. I even tried sending them an email which they never responded to. I ended buying my parts from V6MustangStuff.
You have been lucky so far, I wouldn't press my luck with them. Just do a search on RPM Outlet here on this forum and you'll see what I mean.
