Jay, my first backdraft from 2011/2012 didn't have this issue. What's the difference in the pipes and what's the best fix in your opinion? At this point I literally drop it into neutral at 30-40 mph when coming to a stop because if I leave it in gear the rattle is gawd awful embarrassing. People look over like "hey that's a cool car but why does it sound like ****?" LOL!
Your first car came from us and did not have a Smeding engine... But I don't know if the noise you are describing is in fact what I am stating is the norm. Unless you guys are both unique at the same time? It's not something our customers are complaining about. So perhaps you need to YouTube it and/or get your dealer to work on it with you?

The current pipes are produced by the same company building far more units for several other BIG kit car companies and again not seeing these complaints on their forums or here.
