Exhaust rattling

[Jeff822]

Today we put a VRS 2.5 inch turbo back on my car in place of my old 3" turbo back to help boost creep. We had to un-bolt the brace that holds the driveshaft up so we could get the one hanger up but now theres a really loud rattling at idle or when i first step on the gas and when i turn, i think its the hanger hitting against the driveshaft or something, what could i do to help? It is really annoying. thanks

It could be your exhaust shield touching your exhaust causing it to rattle, I had a really nasty rattle a while back because at the dyno my exhaust shook because of the power and afterwards at rolling the car I heard the rattle noise and looked underneath to find the tip of the exhaust shield stuck on the my catback flange so I just pushed it out and bend outward and fixed the problem.

Check underneath the car and quickly turn the car on to help you detect your problem.
