hey guys, i have had my Evo2 installed for 10 months now, and it seems to rattle alot near the back/wheel area, possible even the muffler. anyone else have this problem? the noise does go away after about 5 minutes of driving.
also it didnt rattle at all when i first installed it, im just thinking it is rattling b/c it is cold and it needs to warm up. thoughts/comments thanks

I had an Evo... rattled because the tip hit the bumper... rattling in general increased (in other parts of the exhaust) when it was cold but it went away after the car was warmed up... sounds similar....

There is also a heat shield that the B-pipe might be hitting a foot or two before the rear wheel.

Yes it does hit the bumper in the back but that's not the rattling he is talking about.

The rattling you are experiancing is by the suspension where the rear-section pipe is hitting the sides of the small hole. When it warms up, it usually goes away.

Funny my greddy fit perfect even with the stillen rear. No cutting needed.

You have saggy hangers.

Could be, but it's still tight.

Well, consider yourself one of the lucky ones... mine melted off some of my bumper like Nissan2k2specv was saying... I have a Frankencar now though, but I do miss the noise...
