Hi all, so I just finished installing my f-sport exhaust, and I noticed that the floor seems like it vibrates under quick accelerations, is that normal? Also, I remember someone saying that the exhausts will quiet down a little after a month or so? is that true?

I've never had a F-Sport exhaust, but from my experience with aftermarket exhausts, usually straight through exhaust designs resonate with the same frequency as the cabin, therefore creating vibrations at certain RPMs. Constant vibration is usually the result of a hanger on unibody contact, and would be resolved with rubber/polyurethane hanger mounts.
As for your second point, usually new exhausts tend to quiet down after a few weeks due to carbon build up - this is really evident on more inexpensive exhausts such as Magnaflow. Hope that helps.

I think the vibrations you are feeling is the sound of the exhaust just making things vibrate some. I have the F sport exhaust and notice the same thing when in the 2-3k rpm range when the exhaust is howling. After a while when you break it in the vibration should die down some.
