hey guys, i searched and found no answer..

i bought an s-pipe off of a fellow club member and just wanted to make sure that i can reuse the stock bolts to install it. i found a couple of posts about the fitment of the ZPI S-Pipe.. but this is the Creative Compacts one. sOo.. yea, id appreciate your replies. thanx in advance.

btw, i have an injen cai, megan header, and a custom s-pipe back (no cat) exhaust, sO this is the last stock piece of pipe i have left.. hopefully it'll restore the low end torque and reduce some rasp.

i asked about this and people said the CC should fit like a charm with stock bolts and whatnot

Yep..the stock spring bolts work just fine. The kit comes with new bolts for the s-pipe to mid-pipe connection.

ok, so i got it installed at a local muffler shop during my lunch break yesterday.. but now i have a problem. when i was driving it under 50-60, it was great.. but when i hopped on the freeway and hit about 80, there was this nasty rattle/vibration. when my hand was on the shifter, i could feel something moving around down below.. when i got home, i jacked it up to take a look and couldnt find anything.. i thought it was the sensor, since i have an antifouler on it.. but it wasnt. the sensor has plenty of space. has anyone else had this problem?? ahh.. i going out of town tomorrow night and do not wanna drive around like this.

Maybe one of the bolts didnt get tightened enough? The upper bolt is a pain to get to and requires some creative angles with a combination wrench. Id get under there and try to retighten the bolts.

^^yeah that was a little tough.

i double checked the bolts and they are all tight.. i also drove it around a little more and realized it only makes the rattle/vibration after i take my foot OFF the gas.. like, everytime i gas, then coast, it rattles. when i gas again, it goes away. i have a feeling its the s-pipe tapping against the heat shield.. anybody else?
