Default rattling after omni test pipe

aight it rattles. either my bolts or loose or two of the test pipe peices are hitting each other. after I installed it i felt air coming out between the first and second peice of the test pipe. anyone else have this problem? I hope its normal with the omni test pipe cuz I'm lazy to jack up the car and tighten the bolts, etc etc

Don't you have to get it welded? Or clamp it? If not, did you check the heat shields?

do u jus thave straight bolts in there? or do u have the spring bolts? if u dont have the spring bolts...after u tighten them down very shortly after the straight bolts will start to walk because of the insane torque a honda puts down ahah...

i have an Omni test pipe and i called Omni and they said it doesnt require welding, that the carbon build up will be enough to seal it. i had mine TIG welded though

no rattles with the spring bolts

the whole point of omni pipe is universal for all exhaust set ups. once you weld it then it can only be for that specific car..

WTF... maybe you should do that first, or not work on cars at all.
