The rattle-esque nois your hearing may be the exhaust/cat heat shield underneith you. If the buzz/ rattle starts at about 7k and continues on. It's very common for the bolts to come loose. Just tighten them when you install your new midpipe.

I'm interested as well. Ross_Dawg's car sounded exactly like I want. Now I just need to recoup the money I lost in Vegas.

I definitely see a manufacturing improvement in the new resonator. Now be patient people and this will be out asap.

Thanks, Charles.

As an aside, does anyone else here get a little shiver with certain technical lingo? I mean, asking another man for a bung is almost as bad as asking a computer geek for a dongle

Cool

Can't wait to see how this holds up on track duty as I'm hoping to be running one of those pipes next summer
