Ya still have the rubber, and the latch is pushed up as far as it goes. It's pretty flush with the bumper right now. It's vibrating alot closer to mount points closer to the windshield and mid way to the vent opening where it isnt bolted down.
maybe adjust the hood latch? Do you still have the rubber by the front of the hood?

Anyone with a dry carbon hood notice the hood vibrates a lot during high speeds or is it just me. Worth drilling the hood for the flat pins/locks ?

My J's hood also vibrates starting at 60+ mph. I figured it was normal. I've already hit 130 mph and stayed on 130 for a good 10 seconds and nothing. The ASM hood dampers description from GoTuning says that hood vibration will be eliminated or minimal.

try extending the rubber stoppers on the shock towers. raising them up higher to create some tension on the hood.

I agree, this reminds me of the HKS SSM exhaust. The ASM dual silencer looks to be 60.5 to 54 or 48.6? diameter and weighing in at 30lbs. The mufflers look like they're made by saclam. Im interested to hear what it sounds like.

We already have some more details on our site:
ASM I.S. Design Silencer Kit 2
It's nothing close to the HKS or any conventional exhaust because like the Siren Circuit Exhaust, there is no baffling material in the resonators to dampen the sound. It is silenced strictly by cancelling out the harmonic frequencies of the engine. Because of this the exhaust will never get louder and has a very finely tuned sound The exhaust is extremely quiet, they tell me almost like stock under 4000rpm when using an OEM header. Above that, it has a subtle note that is well tuned.
