when i go into 1st i hear a rattling sometimes sounds like some part of the exhaust hitting somewhere would anyone have an idea where? i have a full 3" exhaust

 

Typically it's the downpipe hitting the front sway. There may be room but at the right rpm the vibrations cause it to hit.

 

yea i figurred it was that because its up front... it only happens if im going into first gear like below 1000 rpms like easing it in

 

Yep. I have that now. I get it from 1100-1300 rpm only. So the idle while the car warms up when cold makes it chatter. Also when in parking lots when slowing for speed bumps. They say lowering the car makes it worse and you can use spacers on the dp to fix it.

Here's a nice summary with pics of a specific downpipe: http://www.socalevo.net/forum/index.php?topic=76801
