Default exhaust rattle...

Good news! got my magnaflow duals installed with a custom X. It sounds really good and no drone so far!

Bad news.. it rattles like mad once you break 10 mph.. sounds like its the back left muffler and mid pipe..

I'm taking it back to the shop hopefully tomorrow to get this rattle out

Check the tightness of the clamps and then tighten them more. Also, check for muffler support bracket-to-chassis contact.

pics will come soon! I drove in to work this morning and man it sounded nasty. (minus the rattle of course) I was debating between magnaflows or flowmasters.. I know the flowmasters are much louder but also have drone and some raspyness at certain rpms. I'm really liking the magnaflows so far
