That may be what's going on. I haven't gone back there to check what exactly is rattling. I hardly even turn the radio on lately. I've read that adding fatmat to the underside of the rear deck gets rid of rattle.

Yeah.. Plus I also think that my muffler resonance is making things loose. Tom I'm hoping those j pipes are the charm. Going to go with 29 in. 2 1/4 pipes. And also have the guy push in some of the heat shield around the resonated x pipe cuz its touching when I step on it really hard

I think KJ has almost the exact same setup. pretty sure a set of down-pipes w/ hi flow cats, resonator delete and MRT V2.0 would get really close. Maybe switch out to LS3 midpipes.

Haha, all of them are just pieces of the exhaust system.
Version 1 is louder at idle, but I believe it also has somewhat of a higher pitch.

I haven't had a chance to hear it in person. Just going by what has been said on C5, lol. Or maybe is was raspier, not high pitch. It's been so long, I don't know what's real anymore.
