please help me
i just installed a test pipe and it is making an extremely annoying buzzing rattling sound. Does anyone know why it is doing this and how to fix it? It's driving me nuts. Thanks.

Was it an exact fit? If you had to push around some of the other pipes, they may be hitting a heat sheild.
Did you use new gaskets?
Test pipes tend to make any low displacement car buzzy, sure it's not just the exhaust? Maybe something inside the body is resonating to the exhaust note?

I figured it out, I have an exhaust leak/springs rattling on the axle back connection. I got rid of the springs and bolted straight through with big bolts and lockwashers on the test pipe it helped a little bit. I'm going to do the same on the back to get a good seal. My muffler hangar also broke, it must have happened when I had to push the exhaust back about an 1/2 inch to accomadate the slightly longer test pipe, shitty generic muffler.
