is the pipe new? im saying this because there is a black exhaust brace that sits between the flex of the y pipe and the cat that it may hitting or rubbing against.

its exactly what it is does it for me....put that brace back on and turn it so it makes the y sit higher its the only real solution unless someone else has figured something else out which would be nice

i used what most other did and used longer bolts with the same thread and put 4-5 washers per bolt against the body of the car to lower the brace.
