ok, so... i just installed my buddy club spec 2 exhaust and its loud as hell, which i like:) and i understand its comp spec and basically a straight pipe, BUT! when i "get on it" it makes that horrendous clapping sound, and the fact that its so loud makes it even worse... the whole front half of my exhaust is megan (header, downpipe, test pipe) but thats temp till im turbo'd.. does anyone have any suggestions as to how i would get rid of that dreaded clapping?

maybe your rubber exhaust hanggers need to be replaced.... or try getting under the car and shake the exhaust to c were exactly the noise is coming from...thats how i fixed my exaust....

Mine did the same with a diff. exhaust, it ended up it was hitting my Diff. cover, new hangers + a BFH equals no more clacking.

no no no its the exhaust note itself, the piping isnt hitting anything i made sure of that... when i put the silencer in it basically stopped...but i dont want to run the silencer lol...it has that..dare i say..honda cackling/clapping in the exhaust note, i think i may try heat wrapping the exhaust to make it a bit more sturdy and maybe it wont echo as much but idk...

if its doing it when you really get on it i would say maby add just a little back pressure, since installing the silencer works to stop the noise.. hell throw a cat on it for a day and see if it dose it without the silencer...
my meagan 3 inch slapps somewhere under my car at just the right rpm, makes me feel hondaesk :(

Your exhaust is just being raspy. Put a resonator on it and youll be good.
