Send me your order info. I can supply you with the 3 bolt collector gaskets at no charge, but the 2 bolt gaskets are not normally included or needed for install.

some times when companies use thin gauge metals it makes that sound. and did you put the counter weights back on the exhaust system? I know Stillen and a couple other companies reuse the counter weights to help eliminate vibration sounds.

Even with the stock cats it's still going to make that "hissing" noise, even my stock exhaust did it.

Never knew there are counter weights on an exhaust system. I'll look into it.

I have the Stillen exhaust and it reuses the stock counter weights and I don't have any problems with noise or vibrations.

Oo, thats what those black circle things on the stock y-pipe are. I'll have to see about putting them on the magnaflow x-pipe

Heres the drive-by. The O-**** at the end is a local PD kicking us out of the lot. Enjoy!

After some reserch, I believe that weird noise is because of a lack of counter weight on the magnaflow x-pipe. If you look at one of my vids, you can see the x-pipe shakes as you hear that noise. Now I just have to make a bracket and take the counter weights off the stock exhaust and put them on the magnaflow. Once that is done i'll post up some new vids!
