My Apexi Noir exhaust is hitting the floor pan right beside the driver's seat when driving.

It's driving me nuts, I've tried taking off the cat-back and prying the mid-pipe but that hasn't helped. I've also tried putting clamps on the the hangers for the muffler but that raised it up a little and made it worse.

I have a little bit of header wrap coming so I will try that next, I also saw this, would it help?http://www.frsport.com/Circuit...ml#f2

i had a similar problem where it was hitting a bolt (the rear seat mount bolt on the d/s tunnel), so i just cut the end of the bolt off and the noise stopped. see if it's that, unless you know for sure it's hitting the floor pan. g/l.

yea looks like it's really close that bolt (and it's bracket) I guess it's time to bust out the angle grinder

I was able to grind down that bolt (for the back seat?) and no more rattling, woot.
