Default ws6 suspension problems

Ws6 susp. upgrade making noises at rear

I am asking this for a friend, the car was purchased with a ws6 suspension upgrade on a 95 convertible. Since he has had the cat it has always made rubbing noises when driven hard in the corners. He replaced the exhaust because of finding loose fittings on the exhaust, some noise is gone, but the noises are still present.

The suspension change should be no problem fitting..right?
Anybody come across this before?

were the parts used.. many things can go bad on the car that would cause it.. shocks for one although ws6 shocks are just decarbons and bushings gone bad in the lcas or phb can cause clanks and squeeks.. as far as the roll bars go it shouldnt cause any noises...

the exhaust shouldnt come near to the suspension except for the over the axle pipe possibly rubbing but that would be clearly visible and also its not the suspension.. this may seem weird but try pushing the left side of the exhaust hook on the left further back in the rubber grommet.. mine kept sliding somewhat out, would never fall out though, and it cause the over the axle pipe to squeek like a bitch.
