Something is definetly not right, I can hear a pretty loud metal on metal rubbing sound coming from the passenger side. I'm going to have to put it up again and check to see what the hell is going on down there.

I don't get it, sometimes it makes that rattling noise and sometimes it doesn't. I reached under the car and tried to see if there is any play on either of the exhaust legs coming down from the manifolds and they are both on there tight, or at least they feel tight. Yesterday, I drove it around all day but on the say home from my Fiance's house I could hear it popping/crackling on deceleration.
