Bah.. Venting Mode

Ok, today, after long procrastination, I decide to install my resonated budget bpipe. I already had a ypipe and stillen muffler. Well, when using my impact gun, one of the bolts snapped, no biggie because midas is right next door (I was doing this at work). Well, after im done, and i send it to midas, i ask them to fix it yadda yadda. Well, they tell me that the fitment was kinda messing with the ypipe, the ypipe is actually hitting the body of the car, and i could really feel it. And the setup is LOUD... so obnoxious, i hate that. I scoff people who have it, and now I have it. It might not be as bad on the outside, but inside..... woooooooo, sounds so nasty. They also made me new custom hangers because I lost the one that went on the bpipe and to support the ypipe. I tried driving as slow as possible so i wouldnt annoy myself crazy and others. God..... It might be an exhaust leak, i dont know, but yea on monday i need to take it back there and have it so that the pipes dont hit the body. I dont know why it would happen, when the ypipe was installed before, it didnt hit it. Sorry for such the long story, i had to vent. If anyone would like to give me some comfort, all would be appreciated =), or if anyone has had the same problem. Yea, so i dont think i would recommended budget y resonated-b, and stillen muffler, since its toooooooooo loud. I kind of like stock b and stillen muffler with ypipe, sounds sorta nice, if you can live with the 2k drone.

update.
Well, i got everything fixed, and there is actually really no noise increase from the budget y, budget b-resonated, and stillen exhaust. It was just the rubbing from pipes to the body. So it still drones from the inside, i will take some clips when i can, because i know some people were asking about it. But if you already have the stillen exhaust on it, almost no difference, if any.
