Default JIC ST rubbing against the rear M-brace?

Hi,
I just had my JIC ST single exhaust and JIC y-pipe installed yesterday. Upon starting the car, i could feel the whole car rattling. As soon as that happened, i suspected that it could be the mid pipe rubbing against one of the braces. So the shop jacked up the car and found that it was indeed, the mid pipe rubbing against the m-brace. My shop just adjusted and mid-pipe to raise the pipe a bit, but it would still rub against the brace. So he placed a rubber piece inbetween the pipe and the brace to reduce the vibration. It felt somewhat better, but at time i could still feel the vibration. Any suggestions??? Does anyone have this problem with the full jic single setup?

Did you also have the JIC y-pipe as well? I think that is the cause of the rubbing.

+1. I love my JIC single. Don't have the y-pipe yet, though.
