damn That sucks, where is blueslate, I need to ask him if he has it with his FI exhaust. Lol. If not I'll go get the Magnaflow Xpipe and hopefully it'll get rid of it.

I have the same exact sound. I learn to live with it, but still trying to come up with a solution...nothing yet. Will be keeping an eye out on this thread. Let us know what u do Csquared
Just to let some of u doubtful guys know that i love the sound of my car. All i have is the Berk HFC's with stock exhaust no intakes. Everytime i start it, drive off, and WOT...there are no words to explain the lovely sound of my exhaust.

Wait so if we stop the y pipe from rattling it'll be gone? and you also had leaks? but the sound is the y pipe rattling around right? Because the noise doesn't sound like rasp. I wonder if we went up there and wrapped up the y pipe if the noise would still be there. There is a guy on myg37 has an X pipe and it still made this sound..... WE NEED A FIX! I HATE IT!

^ thanks man, can you post the link to the thread here? Also would it be because we have such restrictive Y pipes and mufflers that the pipe is vibrating so much as the air through the cats travel so much faster?

I realised I get the sound when i'm accelerating too, it's much harder to hear because of the engine and exhaust noise, is that normal?!
