just as it says...I bent the ds collector down a little bit and it helped some...but it is still present...

you can do motor mounts, muffler hanger welded in, bang the floorboard- not to wise. Add padding where it bangs.

Or just mess with it till it doesn't bang anymore.

Mine came with torque stop.

what kind of "padding" would resist the heat? I pretty much did all I can do and now its welded...

WEll if you want to do it right than you should do the poly motor mounts. It fixed my problem and it will make the car a fill a little more responsive when you're on the gas

if you dont want to go with motor mounts i saw thunderracing had a rubber part for that i think it was only like 40bucks. check it out under i think exhaust accessories

made a solid mount to keep motor from twisting, worked like a charm.

damn it!!! and they sure wouldve been easy to change with it all out...and I read the advice for that but no one said it cures that banging problem or I would have done it!

The the mount bene posted is a good solution...or you can just jam something in between the pipe and floor...like a valve spring..haha

My mount goes from the Passenger side head to the strut tower bolt, took like 10 minutes to make, wish I had a camera. and it don't look like poo either

Mufflex Y pipe bump stop hanger

yeah, but does this mufflex hanger have the strength to hold the pipe down and not hit the floor ALL the time, and what does the install include?

iTrader: (9)

install is stupid easy. its jsut a normal ol exhaust clamp, but you bolt a bracket to the heat sheild and it uses 2 rubber muffler hangers to force the y pipe down so it doesnt bang any.

+1 for polly motor mounts and tranny mount!!! did mine last week with pacesetters in the way and with the car on ramps it took me 12hrs total and it sucked but no more bangin at all!! and driveline feels more solid

transamwes

oh and i was going to just go with the mufflex bump stop hanger to cure this prob. and actually ordered one from thunder racing about 3 1/2 weeks ago but they were on backorder got an e-mail stating they shouldnt be more than a week out and i still have not heard back!!! would have been alot easier to install than the motor mounts but seems like a band aid fix to me...

To get rid of the banging associated with long tube headers, I bought QUALITY headers. No banging, and no need for a bumper...that goes for the stock motor mounts and my new(er) poly ones as well.

iTrader: (9)

well im using a good header, but im using a jet hot Y pipe

You wouldn't know quality if it jumped up and hit you in the face...
