I was serching a saw this post and it also sounds like 1000 bees in a coffee can...

If its only rasp then I can live with it. I'm getting the XYZ pipe with resonator so it should fix the rasp..

I see what uprev tells me. I'll keep y'all posted..

You should try the XYZ with resonator and see what it does first...

No, you don't need to take them off. You can do it with a bolt cutter, dremel cut off wheel or even with a pair of heavy gauge wire cutters.

Its a ~1/8" thick stud that pokes down from the floor board.

update...

Yesterday i check why it was buzzing and i also change the oil at the same time, but its not the heat shield bolt. upRev did cut that bolt off....

The only think that i could tell was the art pipe does hit the heat shield it self where there is a 90 degrees angle....

I also saw water or condensation where the art pipe and y pipe meet up, it was dripping a fair amont, not a constant amount but its noticeable,,, don't know if that is normal or what......
(engine was cold, i was changing the oil)

But i haven't been hearing the buzzing a lot. Maybe one or twice every few days or so, or even once every 3 days....

But im keeping the art pipes, they are amazing..

Ill see what upRev tells me about water dripping by the art pipe and y pipe...

ill keep yall posted.

lll try to upload sound clips. The only thing i have is my iPhone 4s. Don't know if the quality will be good.

Yeah i only have stock exhaust. I don't know if I'm going to do anything else to the exhaust.

In a few months I'm gong to put a high end sq sound system so my exhaust cant be too loud.

But i will be adding a z-tube, 06-07 air box and MD 5/16 spacer and lastly a upRev tune in a few weeks, so stay tune....
