Does your Greddy Ti exhaust Rattle?

i got mine installed a couple days ago... when i warm it up, if i stand behind the exhaust directly, i can hear a rattling sound. can't hear it if i'm off to the side or anything. after i drive for a while, and i stand back there, i can't hear it. Wondering if it's a rattle or if it's just settling in or something?

if it is a rattle, what should i look at? any usual suspect areas?

thanks

so it's nothing to worry about? it's kind of a nuisance to people around me when i'm warming up the car... but if all's well, then i won't worry about it. however, IS there anything i can do about it?

i'm talking about the loud RATTLE. it sounds like there's metal clattering against metal. after it warms up, it goes away, but when i cold start it it's there.

When I put my silencer in the first day, it rattled, so I took it out. No rattles here.
