We're in the same boat my Borla atak hits on hard bumps used spacers but u get on a bad road hear it hitting

I know from studying mine that the pipes are getting loose on your exhaust. you just have to find a way to loosen the clamps, raise the exhaust as high as you can, ( I used a floor jack and a short 2x6) and then secure everything. It might be that you need new clamps.
This, along with the spacers fixed mine. Don't get mad, get busy.

Lol i am so tired of seeing the underside of car! I agree clamps are not cutting it. I jack it up to driveshaft then tightn and it sags down i think i cut to much pipe off or clamps really suck. I am about to put the stock clamps on since they are longer?

jsharp · 07-26-2011, 08:13 PM

Think i got it wooped. I have never loosened all connections raised exhaust up and then tight with air impact i always wrenched in fear of stripping. So this time i cranked the impact up and gave her hell thinking oh well if bolt breaks. Well i lowered jack and walaa. Hope it stays this way and doesnt creep down over time! I hung on it with all my weight 194lbs and barely moved. I laughed and said take that bitch!

sasquash1984 · 07-26-2011, 08:39 PM

Wait that looks like stock exhaust

jsharp · 07-26-2011, 10:42 PM

Good job! And you thought it couldn't be done. Now if your clamps are still worth a s@#t that should take care of it. If it still rattles on rough roads or going over bumps you might have to do the spacer thing.
It took me three times to get mine adjusted right. It was a pain in the @ss. But that was last year and I haven't heard it since.

Mark's SS · 07-27-2011, 12:30 AM

I forgot he didn't have an aftermarket exhaust too. But it's all the same i guess.

For what, exactly? (other than racing situations) I cannot tell a difference with it on vs off for normal driving.
