Stupid y-pipe

now my exhaust rattles BIG TIME at a stop light in gear I have to put my car in neutral for it to stop. This sucks. I haven't had the time to take it back in to look and see the cause yet. it is more fun on the highway though, a little too much fun though. My mileage is the same as it was before and I drive on the highway more now

It is probably resting on the swaybar or some such thing. Get under there and show that pipe who's boss!!!

would this be the ws ypiper??
i had the same problem, the begining of last summer.
i put it up on a lift running, and i could see it was rubbing on something. swaybar i thinkj
so i heated it up with a oxy/acetylene torch and used a pryba to teach it to not do that again.
dont burn yaself

I've never heard of this problem before...maybe the exhaust was installed wrong.

I've had both the WS and the Cattman y-pipes and the WS is far more superior.

The only rattling noise I've experienced is when B-pipe rattles against my Addco RSB... ST RSB is shaped to go around the b-pipe...
