Default Vibrations After TN Install

After installation of my TN turbo I have really nasty vibrations under load with decreasing rpm while in gear. Usually about 3000 RPM and below.

Anyone else have any vibrations?

I believe they are comming from the exhaust piping hitting something on the deceleration.

I hate modifications.

yea i get that same vibration too. Even thow i have a greddy TT but my vibration comes from the drivers side seem like under the pedal. Maybe is a test pipe or something. I get it around 3k to 2500k sometime maybe 2k is its like a rattle. Im going to get a custom exhaust hopefully is just a test pipe or something not that important.

MIA - on yours check the rear EVAP canister "shield". The WS2 requires some minor trimming/bending of the black metal shield to avoid contact with the passenger side pipe (the one that leads to the exhaust tip) - had the same thing when I used to have that exhaust

Thats a good call....When I first installed the exhaust I safety wired that black metal case forward by pulling it with the wire towards the brace just in front of it. That wire may have come loose though..I'll check that tonight...Thanks a million!!

Never had noticable vibrations after the TN install (single exhaust as well), but feel ya with the not loving the modifications like I used to or was hoping anymore...

More and more thinking about the money spent... I should have just stuck with what I was familiar with... Basic bolt-ons

Wouldn't have to worry about crap, just what to do with all the money haha.
