Buzz after downpipe install...

there's a super annoying buzz coming from under the car after i installed my downpipe. anyone know what it could be? is it the downpipe resonator itself?

One: I have an anoyying buzz after a certain RPM. I have a header, test pipe, all the way back to a shitty APC muffler. It's just the exhaust resonating.

Two: My exhaust sometimes come in physical contact with the shield underneath the car due to the angle it was welded at. That makes a buzz two.

ReD2k1 is an unknown quantity at this point
check ur piping under your car like towards the front of the car directly under the center console of ur car there is a bend in there that could be rubbing against the body of the car

arggg it's not the muffler after all. it's the downpipe itself like i originally thought. Is this something everyone else gets?
