Fitted one of the above last night, sounds great, but i have a rattle comming from under the car now, had a look and everything seems tight so what could it be?

Had the same thing with mine,

fitted it last friday. i removed the rear heatsheild from under the rear bumper, but am still getting a noise at certain engine reves.

Possibly the heatshield that runs up the lenth of the centre section ???

bar the rattle what do u think is it worth the 300 notes ??


Ps hope u get the rattle sorted.

Definately worth the money.

The rattle isn't even that loud, only heard it the other day, but now i know it's there, it's annoying me, you only hear it for a split second as the revs rise.

I would definately recommend the Firestorm, huge improvement over the magnex in terms of sound.

Cant say anything about performance, as i'm still running a standard system, cats etc.. So for me it's just the noise levels that have changed..oh...and the pops and bangs !

what would scooby do

Only thing that rattled after fitting my Firestorm where my teeth !!! (300bhp Type R - not much soundproofing)

lol..sounds good.

Mines is a tad boomy with having a wagon...but i love it !

mine was rattling on the rear diff even though it was a good 1,1.5"away from it,a rubber exhaust hanger pushed in the gap stopped it

Found the problem!
The noises only seemed to happen when cornering to the left at speed, turns ou the brackets supplied with teh box have a little more plat than the standards, and the pipe is tapping the diff on occations! I thing a drill and a few pins should be able to sort it and tighten up the box!

Ahh !

May have a look at mine and see what it's like.

Well done mate.
