Default exhaust note a little weird ???????

I wonder if anyone can shed some light

Just noticed a slightly weird "rattly" noise coming from my back box,When the engine is running im getting a strange rattle around the rear of the exhaust system,also have noticed if i stop the engine,and give the back box a "wiggle" i can hear what sounds like little stones/gravel rattling around inside

Are the baffles buggered ?????????

cheers marcus

Baffles went on my HKS backbox and the car sounded absolutely awful with no baffles. I would consider just buying another backbox.

Just my opinion, you might like it but it was considerably louder and lost that flat 4 sound!
