Need help with Helix Downpipe

This thing is rubbing like nuts. I've had my exhaust shop try everything, and it still rubs. Please let me know what I can do. Thanks

What version dp is this? and what is the current setup right now? I think 1 or 2 out of 10 people are having some problems. Do you know where it is rubbing?? I can provide some harden dp bushings to prevent rocking back and forth against subframe, if thats where the DP is rubbing against.

Thanks

I have Kartboy hangers already. I believe it is rubbing up top, because it isn't close to touching anything. The Helix Downpipe's number is (CT9A), that is according to your description. We've tried loosening the top spring like screw that they have for the top portion of the downpipe, and then tried retightening it again. I don't see where it is hitting, atleast not around the body, as it has quite a bit of space, and the Kartboy Hangars aren't known for alot of travel. Please let me know what I can do to repair it, as it is extremely bad at idle.
