So I put a set of Megan test pipes on
They sound great but it sounds like there is a rattle snake under the car when I let off the gas. I'm thinking I have an exhaust leak but Im not sure. I just hope its not one the pipes itself and be a bad flex part or something. Its just kinda odd sounding.
When I let off the gas the rattle starts, I push in the clutch and it goes away. I thought maybe the heat shields were what was causing the sound but oh no, that's not it.
Im going to get it on a lift and see if I can figure out the noise, if I have to replace the gaskets I will. Im hoping that thats the cause. Anyone ever had this happen to them?

Yeah, I got the V2, didnt know it was a revision though. They have the long o2 bungs on them. Worst case, there is either a leak or a loose part inside the test pipe. Ill be getting into this sometime this week, hopefully I will figure something out.
I dont think I got them from Static though, it was someone else.

Sooooo, I think I figured it out. I think it was a mixture of a few things. Like Dubi2087 said, the lack of the bracket was causing some of it, but I did notice that my flex joint on the stock Y pipe is starting to leak which is making an odd sound.
So I took the TP's off and put the stock cats back on, can barely hear the car now. But the TP's are solid, no issues with them at all, so that's good.
I think Monday I'm going to put them up for sale. Hopefully they will move quick.
Again, thanks for the advise.
