Hi guys got a mugen cat back exhaust on my dc2r (on there when i bought it).

But i can hear a tinging / rattling nosie (from the muffler)when i rev the car :( .

Now i dont know wat to do? Should i cut the muffler off and weld a straight through muffler on or can it be fixed??

have u noticed anything else relative to this noise ( as in , loss of power , other noises or vibration ) ?

Might be your cat is blown....or piping is rattlign agaisnt say the heatshiel underneath your car....get some one to slowly rev your car as you lay semi-underneath and see if u can pin point the noise.

Its all good now went to best mufflers in carlton and they fixed it up.

it was my spring bolts that hold the cat back exhaust together, the bolts wernt lined up propably and were touching the exhaust and from the vibaration i could hear the nosie.

any exhaust problems go check out best mufflers they know what their on about http://www.bestmufflers.com
