Default Squeeking????

Hey all,
I just put on QTP headers, off-road y-pipe, and corsa catback. I now have this annoying squeek. It happends when deccelerating at about 2700rpms and under. At idle its gone and when accelerating its gone. It sounds like metal rubbing metal. I have checked all the exhaust clamps to make sure they are tight and ran my had around all the pipes to make sure its not hitting anything. I cant find anything!!!!Do any of you fellow member have any clue???? Also, my corsa over the axle pipe it hitting the upper panhard rod. Any of you guys have any idea how to get that up off the rod?? Thanks for all the help!!!!

the unpuckering of your sherrif's badge? lol, jk- can you be more descriptive, i.e., approx. where its coming from? Check the hangers to see if the torque is causing them to move back and forth.

If it's a high pitched squeek. Check the heat shields.

yeah its high pitched, right about where the header and y-pipe connects, but who can really tell while driving the car.....The heat shields do seem a bit loose how would I go about tightening them up????
