So i'm leaving for vacation tomorrow and want to make sure everythings okay, i just put on my apexi ws2 3 days ago and now when i drive i hear it hitting something underneath my car, it seems to be somewhere around the catalytic converter, any ideas as to what this is? Or if i could quickly fix it, which i'm sure i can.

Oh and i already tightened all the bolts so i dont know what it could be

Alot of times the exhaust will require the bolts to be retightened after they heat cycle a few times. Also make sure the hangers are not shot.

All of that was good, im gonnna go a differents route and heat wrap around where it is hitting so that it doesn't bang anymore :) hopefully that takes care of the problem

My borla exhaust hit on the rear sway bar. I just wrapped some heat warp around the way bar to prevent the noise, but it sounds like you got it handled :)

Haha yeah heat wrap was the way to go, i can still hear it hit when i drop gears but barely, not even close to what it was doing

Kinda bringing this tread back to lol but after i hear wrapped it, there is no problem when its sunny and nice out but as soon as it rains, it bangs on the underbody. Any idea why this is? I want to get this fixed because its really annoying haha
