Mugen exhaust and T1R test pipe, no rattles.

One bit that might be worth check is the black heatsheild in the engine compartment protecting the ABS system from the manifold.

Ive got it too. i also get it when i left of at high revs. i thought it was the heat shield at first but its still there after i removed it. it sounds v raspy with the cat. maybe the manifold and exhaust change will sort that out. although im not sure what exhaust to go for now as i had my heart set on a supersprint system but this might make unbearably raspy!

does any one with any after market exhuast have this ringing as mine is stock at the mo too.

The "ringing you hear is the famous clutch buzzing .
When you go to high RPM'S and let off the gas you'll hear ringing around 3500 rpm .
So the ringing is not related to your cat or exhaust .

Its not clutch buzz, I've only had it since I fitted the decat and I get it under WOT in vtec and at high revs coming back down the rev-range having lifted off.

exactly like mine. looks like we`ll have to fork out for the exhausts sooner rather than later.
