I haven't had any problems since my install almost a year ago. Could be a cat is hitting one of the heat shields. You can easily bend those out of the way. Or could be one of the over the axle pipes hitting the axle or the muffler tip hitting the rear fascia. Just need to get under there and start shaking things around until you find it.

I had the same prob. but when i installed my mid-pipe it turned out my high flow cats were hitting heat shields. So i just bent the heat shield and now all is good .
