Dblock Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 I have a japspeed k2. Now its been fine but its started making a shaking maraca-ish noise. The noise is only between 2-3.5k and the k2 still sounds sweet higher than that. Does anyone know what it is? Tailpipes? Baffles? or something else? The sound wouldnt even record on a video so its hard to describe. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zugara Posted April 6, 2012 Share Posted April 6, 2012 Baffles I recon.....seen any strange spots or flecks on your rear bumper above the tail pipes if you have that's the wadding, or a baffle may have cracked and that rpm is right frequency to set off the noise. Or could be a loose hanger! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should see whitish flecks on the rear bumper and on tail pipes, I assume that the negative pressure, vacuum, caused when the car is going forward, sucks the deposits onto the back of the car, Glenet had this issue with his Miltek last year.

Dblock Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 There is nothing like that above or around the exhaust. Im sure I read that it could be a lose tail pipe? I try to get them welded up maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
