My longtubes are touching my starter, vibrating against it causing a rattle that 3 shops identifyed as a broken exhaust hangar, then one pried it away from the starter and it stopped! then came back as the pipe moved back over.

Just wanted to make sure it was for sure your exhaust, otherwise your CAI could be rattling too. I know mine was, the rubber bushings werent completely pushed into the body.

To let you know as well, when my longtubes rattle against the starter, the sound is thrown to the back so it sounds like its back there unless your up on it.

also check the over axle tubing next to the gas tanks...some shops put them too close to the tank and and lower rpms it causes it to tap the tank shield....i had that issue and had it fixed by a hanger readjustment
