recently got skunk exhuast system out on but I get some sort of body rattle at 3000ish revs.. sounds like it's coming from the left side of the car.

and also, when I close my passenger door.. I can hear something loose inside of the door - any ideas?

cheers

maybe ur exhaust bolts are loose. that's like my one atm i change exhaust and when i drove it started rattling at around 3k rev. mayb jack the car up and re tighten the bolts

What's "slow throttle"? Do you guys mean, light throttle? I would get under there and give it a bit of a shake to see what it's hitting, if you've not already tried that.
