Do all duals rattle?
Do all true dual systems rattle? I heard they all do since the exhaust is mounted to the body, regardless of how quiet the system is. Is it true?

Mine doesn't rattle either. It does, however, make loose objects in the car rattle

Just tighten it down with a piece of rubber in between the exhaust and the body and it does wonders.

Umm i dont have any issues with it rattling. If you do it correctly and spend the money to have it done right, you won't have a problem at all. BTW i run 3" all the way from front to back.
