Arm emailed me that they will be sending me a new revised set of dp. Hopefully something in them. But respect to the company for trying to make things right

We do not sell catless downpipes, but it's always a pleasure dealing with them. As a vendor, it's a massive plus for me when I know the manufacturer stands behind their product, and I can count on them to make it right for my customers.

Update: New dps still rattling. The updated dp flange just sits in tighter and not as loose. Rattling has gone down only slightly… just spent another $200 for installation

Just pay any fab shop $20 to weld it. It'll take 30 seconds. I've had mine welded for 8k miles now and not a single rattle.

My set just showed up. I'll have that flange welded @ initial install.
Tired of dealing with rattles/rasp on this platform.

ARM's updated resonated downpipes are still rattling ? What the heck ARM !!!!!!!! I though they resolved this issue but i guess not. I just ordered a set last week. Looks like i will be tack welding the flange in place to prevent rattle as i am definitely not taking these off to mail back (pain in ass)....

Mine is still okay. It’s welded and it’s not rattling. Raspiness is much reduced, and maybe 90% of the rotten egg smell in enclosed spaces is gone. |

My ARM DPs are rattling even after being tack welded. I think you need to weld all the way around the flange for it not to rattle.

Maybe one of your tack welds cracked? Maybe stitch weld it all around.

It will be much easier for the next person to weld it fully before installing.

You're making me consider just having that flange welded on entirely.

I am fairly certain that I found the cause of the rattle even with the welded flange. The welds were fine in my case but the rattle persisted.
I took off the ARM downpipes and started hitting it and noticed a rattle. Turns out there is a lip on the inner portion of the shorter downpipe that is rattling against the flex section. It looks like a fundamental design issue (or just a flaw in my unit) and the only solution may be to weld the inside of the downpipe. Maybe this has been fixed in subsequent revisions but this is something you should check before installing. Just tap each downpipe and check for rattles before putting them on.
