Regarding the rattling, only coming down off revs. Not at idle. Again, my installer (very sharp) noticed that it was occurring as my waste gates were closing (he was visibly able to see this occur). His explanation (as he pulled out an old GT-R turbo) was that the gate does not provide a tight connection necessarily as it closes and it can rattle. The reason he thought it was more than before (I had some rattling after my GTC exhaust) was that the backpressure was now much less which didn't promote a quicker or stronger seal as wastegates were closing. Hmmm. I'm no mechanic. Does this sound plausible? Thanks for your input.

Yes, that sounds pretty accurate actually. That might be just what it is.... but mine is clearly noticeable at idle also so I'm not sure..in my case.
