Two new ideas:

1. Have the bracket which is vibrating bent to the side.
2. Have the exhaust hangers modified so that the exhaust could be lowered a bit in the back. The problem I see with this is creating too much space between the tail pipe and the bumper.

Thoughts?

there are places that make custom exhaust hangers... get a circular one made that fits around the the pipe....like a super high temp rubber than will basically work as a "damper"

Thanks for your input. I need to find a GOOD exhaust shop that can help me resolve this issue. I love the exhaust but the vibration is very irritating.

Hytech in irvine is your best bet. they are the only people who can really mess with titanium.

Funny you should mention them. I have thought about having them make me a header.

well maybe if you have them build you a header they will fixx your exhaust for free. their work isn't cheap. but it's high quality. you get what you pay for.

I was quoted $1500 for a one-off header.

Very nice header...but I would be willing to bet the Hytech would make better gains.
