Hissing from hfc, is it a rumor?

Both will be primarily on decel around 2.5 K or so RPM.

Only solution is to go OEM diameter Y (or Nismo OEM H), and resonated HFC/TP or LTH. Other than that its hit or miss to fix. Good luck...
None of this is true.

I did not have a hiss when I replaced my OEM y-pipe with my AAM y-pipe and catback.

I did not get a farty rattle when I swapped my OEM cats for FI test pipes.

Resonated test pipes can and will usually hiss just like non-resonated will.
