By any chance with the exhaust rattle, is your car manual and did it go away when you pressed in the clutch? My manual has a rattle especially when cold and sounds for all money like the exhaust (metal on metal sound) but press the clutch and it goes away. Mine has done it since new.

On my car its something todo with the rubber hangers on my xforce single exhaust. The pipe was bashing on the rear cradle. especially when turning right.

 

Annoying part is I didn't fully resolve it, there is another hanger in the middle of the exhaust with nothing for it to join onto. mechanics gona give me some hoist time so I can resolve it while hes doing the p/s line.

If the noise isn't quite to your liking, upgrade to a ceramic twin plate

 

 

You'll have to concentrate to hear anything else

When you find where it's touching get some radiator hose and some clamps and wrap it around the pipe and clamp it on. 

If it's the muffler banging like in that vid see if you can attach some rubber to the chassis or something. 

That's if you can't stop it from swinging. 

 

 

What I done today is "high flow" my airbox. 

There's a 127mm hole in the rise on the base, an 80mm right on the base and a 102mm right in front. 

Wasn't going to do it and wait till I mod all the pipe work and go turbo side etc but I was running a pod straight off the airbox joiner and meh! When I seen jet post that just butchering it with the one hole could net you nearly 30rwkw I thought fark it! 

Bum dyno says he's right. It goes much better than with just the standard snorkel on there.
