Mid-pipe rattle?

I have heard for some people the straight mid-pipe will rattle on the driveshaft bracket or heat shield or somethin?? The bent mid-pipe won't?? I'm just trying to decide which one I want.. I don't want rattles. Thanks!

Get the bent one, the factory one is bent for a reason.

I have a custom made one by a friends shop locally which had no bends....no issues with it. However I do know ETS makes one with a bend I believe. If they do it, I'm sure there is good reason for it.

Off Topic - port st lucie? I lived in Jax before and sold my 02' turbo s2000 back in 2003 to a guy living down there.....

This shows why we add a bend.

Definitely get a testpipe with a bend. All the cheap Chinese ones even have a bend.

I will get the option added right now under the test pipe. Give it 5 minutes and you will be able to select resonated test pipe or catted test pipe

Thanks!
