i have a similar noise on the down throttle around 2000 - 2500 rpms
everyone i know tells me its normal with test pipes
it sounds like metal scraping or something along those lines its real faint but it annoys the hell out of me

I think i should record a video of my car doing it also, it is annoying but I somehow got used to it.. lol
XYZ looks very good.. i wonder how much it is gonna cost to have it shipped to New Zealand, or maybe i'll just get my local exhaust guys to build one with similar design..

I have Fast Intentions hfc's on my hr, hisses between 2-3k. The car has a little power loss there toowhich makes me feel it is indeed a leak in the y-pipe flex,, but afterward it's eyebrowraising torque-y fun. I personally think the hiss sounds kinda cool, yet mine sounds identical to a blow off valve, and I hear no metal scraping.
