I have a wsp, it rattles and sounds like a ice maker near the flex section. I dunno what to do!!!!!!! HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! Anybody have this problem before?

 

Wrap it with exhaust wrap, will help alot.

 

doesn't that void my warranty?

 

Is it the pipe rattling or is the pipe hitting the subframe?

If the pipe is making the noise, send it back for a warranty replacement. If it's hitting the subframe, adjust it or cut a notch in the subframe so the pipe clears it.

 

All I know is the flex section is rattling and when i stick a hammer handle on the pipe in front of the flex section it stops.. someone told me that when i isntalled it i might have turned it the wrong angle.... so I need to undo it and turn it the right way.. does that make any since?

 

I just installed my Wsp y-pipe yesterday. I was also hearing some rattles but I think it went away. I think it might be coming from the bracket that connects to the hangers at the cat. There was a thread about someone welding the loose flange on the y-pipe where it connects to the cat and stopped his rattling problem. If anyone can find that thread that would be great...i searched but couldnt find it.

 

it will go aaway

 

Is there any way I can fix it for good? Or should I just wait... TOmorrow is the day Im off, where I can go to the shop and get the pipe taken off and try to fix it, or else i gotta wait a few weeks..

 

does it sound like an ice maker in your cabin????? Mine has been like this for 2 days, ive prbly put 30 miles on it in 2 days i think.

 

this is what u need to do. mine was rattling, i called warpspeed and they told me exactly what to do, u can call them too.

there is a bracket around the cat' convertor that causes the rattling, u need to take this off but if u do, the cat convertor is gonna fall down. go to a muffler shop and ask them to take it off and bolt something else there instead of the bracket. i did this and my rattling disapeared RIGHT AWAY !

 

I have the wsp cat converter, not the stock.... And the heatshielf doesnt fit the aftermartket one....

 

yeah thats waht Warpspeed told me wheni called, i just replaced the brackets with hangers and it corrected the problem

 

Man. I installed the warpspped cat on it, and i dont have a heat shielf or the stock welded brackets on the stock cat!! What do i do?! ::cries::

 

you dont need no stock brackets. just take off the one around the cat convertor and have a muffler shop bolt some hangers there

 

Mine hits the subframe when I do a strong take off and peel. I think it is caused from the wheel hop on my crappy tires, but I can feel the pipe hitting the subframe. I think it is just because the hanger is too loose. It is not that big of a deal though. I might take care of it later.

I can understand the frustration though, mine doesn't do it all the time.
