Default GMMG Exhaust rattling noise??

I have a GMMG exhaust system and when i start out in first gear and rarely into second at low rpms the exhaust system barely touches to heat shield covering the gas tank and was wondering if it would be alright to remove the heat shield because there is no where to even bend the sheet metal because the tank,shield and exhaust are pretty much almost touching...any advice would help..thx guys

mines doen the same thing since day one, heat shield is there for a reson, wouldent take much to destoy ur plastic tank. either put up with it, change ur eshaust set up or lower ur exhaust.

Ya it's a shitty design being so damn close but the exhaust just sounds so bad *** that it's just not comin off. I'll have to lower it or tweek it some how. Thx

Adjust it. I've had mine on for 6 years and never had this issue. The only sound coming from my GMMG is out the mufflers.
