So the exhaust on my car is rattling and rather than getting a factory replacement, I saw Meagan downpipe for like $135. I was wondering if anyone here has put on the downpipe while retaining the rest of the stock system? Will i have any benefits or on the opposite end, negatives? I just want the rattling noise to go away. any input would be great, thanks.

Where is the rattling coming from? Heat shield ?!?

It seems like something side, the heat shield seems fairly solid and has been welded before

I went through a very similar situation with my old gs300. Rattling exhaust due to some rusted out bolt on my mid pipe. I purchased the midpipe and had a shop bolt it in. It fixed the issue and worked well with the stock exhaust components.

Did it sound different? i know that sounds stupid, but I dont want the car to be ridiculously loud

I have a never installed, brand new Tanabe cat-back for that car in Los Angeles if anyone is looking for that part of the exhaust.
