Now THERE is an interesting idea, and one I forgot to add to my initial questions! The idea had crossed but slipped my mind!

If your cuts (mid to exhaust) have some gap AND the torca clamps are loose enough they can vibrate together, that would absolutely cause noise/feeling. Depending on gap, clamp strength, dirt in the gap, and other variables, it could absolutely only be an issue at certain RPMs or engine created vibration levels.

Great thought!
