Remus Non-Res Catback Rattling
Has anyone installed a Remus catback and experienced terrible rattling? I just put this on about a week ago and you can hear a nasty rattle at low RPMs (1.5-2.1k); it's clearly bouncing off the tension brace, so I'm considering either taking that off (it doesn't seem like it would provide much rigidity, though if they put it there it's for good reason I suppose) or trying to fab a third hangar to secure it.
All the hangars are torqued to spec so I'm not really sure how else to fix it. Any and all solutions welcome.

You have a coupe or convertible ?
I have same catback on my f23 and it is fine. Tolerances around braces are very small but it doesn't rub anywhere.

There's an open screw that we were thinking about trying to attach a bracket to, but I almost wonder if heat wrapping the exhaust would suffice. Only thing that would give me pause is repeated battering against that brace and potentially loosening the bolts.

There is a company (sorry I forget the name) that makes an aftermarket brace that offers more clearance. I had this issue with my Dinan midpipe (I have a Remus axle back). You have to twist it a little to get the muffler and midpipe to level out. It's a pain in the ass. One thing I did was used a jack and jacked up the midpipe to where I wanted it before tightening everything down. That made sure I cleared the brace.
