thats how my carbon ti is. (not as loud, actually no where near as loud)
it could be it hitting the heat shields
try aiming for HKS hi power canister. they come in 120mm so it isnt very long

do you have a new mid pipe.......sounds like it is hitting on the shielding for it or the suspension bar.......I know a few aftermarket midpipes hit the sheilding and make that same noise.

well thats the weird thing..its not hitting anything.. ive looked everywhere.there is honestly something in it lol.. if i shake it while the car is off..i can hear stuff in it. i thought it was hitting something too..that would have been an easy fix lol

Best guess is take it off and shake each piece to see what pipe the rattle is in........but double check the heat sheids first......put it on stands and start it up and with no revving or anything see if something is touching.......as that is what it sounds like.......
