Default Exhuast Rattle!

Hey guys I was looking for some advice. I purchased a Greddy Evo2 cat-back like 2 months back, and ever since its been on I've been hearing a rattling noise like the inlet pipe into my muffler is smacking up against the underside of the car, mainly at idle and lower rpms. I was just wondering if noone else had a similar problem, and if neone else has a solution to it besides cutting and rewelding! Thanks

You take a look under the car yet? Good chance you will find the problem.

is it hitting the under carriage(body) of the car or the suspension like the lower control arm?

does that exhaust fit the car? the piping is always going to vibrate a bit, but it's strange that it would so much to let something knock up against the under carriage of the car... id say ck ur hangars and be sure they're on there nice and snug
