Well, I assume you used new gaskets at the exhaust ports so there should not be any leaks assuming the bolts are torqued correctly. Remember that you need to retorque the bolts after a week or so. May also be leaking around an o2 sensor so check those also. If none of those work, get under the car and check the connections down there.

i think i have a little leak which is why i am going to retorque the bolts on the cat. before i heard that, i thought i was either vibrating on a heat shield or had a leak but it turned out thats how my setup sounds with the stock muffler. sr20den reved it up while i standing outside and the noise was coming from the muffler.
