So a couple questions to help cure my ignorance. There is a vibrating sound coming from my driver side engine compartment that I generally only hear when I turn the wheel and accelerate, only at low speeds such as a left or right turn at an intersection, and not all the time.

Now this raspy baseball car tin sound I hear... I only hear it again when accelerating with generous throttle. I don't hear it when I'm lightly accelerating, with the exception of 4th gear. 5th and 6th is kind of hard to hear with wind and ****.

Do these sounds sound like something is making contact with the exhaust or is it just inherent with having an exhaust this opened up? I can try and make a vid if you guys like to capture the sounds I'm hearing. Everything else sounds magnificent... It burbles, has a deep throaty sound, quiet at cruise and idle, sounds pissed when I'm on it. I'm really happy with everything except what I described.

Thanks guys in advance.
