Hi guys i was just wondering if i get a oem dc2r muffler, would it eliminate the usual rattle it has? Because i'm running a custom cold air intake with no airbox resonator and it rattles alot when its above 3-3.5k rpm. From visuals the dc2r muffler is alot bigger then the stock dc2 mufflers and the ek ones.

Thanks.

What kind of rattling noise are you getting? - maybe it's not the muffler itself?
It could be the catalytic converter. It happened to me as well - ended up getting the cat replaced OR you can go ahead and bash the insides out of it so it's like a straight pipe ;)
maybe take a video of the muffler at 3.5k revs and see if it's moving... could be a lose bracket? and if it's causing you that much of a hassle, a dc2r muffler will only give you more headaches with fitment etc.. from what i remember won't fit :(
