Default downpipe touching ! vibrations!!!!

Hey guys, I have a turbo back exhaust done about a month back and ever since, noticed little vibrations when I come off the throttle. its not through the pedals but more under the foot rest of the passenger and near the gear box. I had a look under the car and the newly installed down pipe seems to be touching the chassis, would this cause the vibrations? IF so, is it hard to move the downpipe so it doesnt touch ?

CHeers!

That'll be what's causing it then.
Downpipe cant be moved as such, but you can beat it with a big stick in the area where it touches.

You need to get the car on some ramps and have a proper look.

It may be possible to use some washers on the hanging bracket of the DP
to pull it away from the bodywork.
