Default Vibrating seats?

Okay so I have megan v2 tp and got my blitz single exhaust installed today
Now my cabin vibrates like a mother***
Is the vibration normal? Never felt vibrations before.
Even my seat vibrates at times :\ it's really loud
Thinking of taking the test pipes off..
Any suggestions of what to do:O

Oh dam really? It can't be anything else causing the vibration cause when the guy installed the exhaust everything was like at a good distance away from touching the car... Except the lower tie bar? If that's what it's called..
Any recommendations of what to do:O

yea im thinking now most likely its hitting the frame.. gan take it to the shop later this weekend again and hopefully he can fix it;/

Agree with the 2 previous members Must be hitting the frame, the loudness of the exhaust or test pipe wouldn't cause that.

Hmm it could be something hitting the bottom of the car but I think you'd easily be able to hear it rattling up against the undercarriage. Either way post your findings.

Something not secured properly? I too think you would hear clanking if something was hitting.

Okay.. I went to the shop today and put it on the lift.
Everything's cleared... No bolts loose or anything.
When I shook the exhaust nothing was hitting anything..
Except the exhaust cutout from the rear bumper but I had to shake the exhaust HARD
The only thing is that the clearance between the rear sway bar is kinda small...
Btw it doesn't vibrate when I'm driving on the freeway.:\

Yea.. I don't hear anything clanking ... I think it's the interior plastic in the trunk that I'm hearing rattle ? Unless its the sway bar
Am I damaging the sway bar if I am hitting it ?
