Well after some hard driving the y hits the floor during shifts and you can hear it with the hose so it looks like I might be getting the Mufflex bracket.

Let me know how this works for ya.....I'm havin issues with my y-pipe and am not going to band-aid it either. Poly mounts or the mufflex hanger would be ok w/me.

Guys, put the poly motor mounts on your cars and be done with it.

You are goona regret not doing it sooner. It will tighten up the whole car and cut down on exhaust shakes as well as shifter shakes on manual cars.

So I just installed the Kooks LT with catted Y and my Corsa Cats...Humms at idle, screams at WOT, but, at the stop light, with the car in drive, I get this drone of a noise coming up my passenger side door....I thought it was someone cranking their bass next to me, but could it be that y pipe knocking? Is that the sound you guys are talking about. It really gets to me too. Mufflex I guess for me too.
