Default Injen SES Questions, also which intake to pair it with?

First of all, I love the system, its loud but not too loud, and its a deep enough sound for me. I went to a shop to have it installed, and everything works great but I hear a clank when I accelerate, not all the time but ive noticed it time to time (installed today). Its a little clink clink not every time I accelerate, but sometimes, is this normal? Also the actual muffler shakes awfully alot, I cant remember too much if my old stock exhaust shook, but I think it did too. I looked on youtube for the same SES exhaust and his did not seem to shake at all, mine just vibrates and you can tell it vibrates, is this normal as well or a problem?

EDIT:

I also want an intake as well, most sensible to get the Injen intake to match the Injen exhaust, the Injen exhaust is already loud as %&$# so I want an intake that isnt that loud, will the TRD be a good choice to pair it with?

Where the exhaust goes underneath the cross member and comes back up is where its hitting. If you add another hanger you will be good.

It should help with both, the Injen only uses 2 of the three oem hangers and the ones it is using are close together not keeping the exhaust centered.

absolutely correct, that's where mine was hitting, i used high temp red rtv in between the pipe and the cross member. as long as you let it cure enough it makes a great bump stop.

I got an injen ses exhaust and a weaponR SRI... I like the SRI for two reasons. One, you don't need to remove your wheel and fender liner to clean your filter, and two less of a chance to get water in the filter.

When it rains here in AZ roads get flodded BAD. So a CAI would be a bad idea for me.

Performance is basically the same. No noticable difference. IMO SRI is slightly louder though.
