no, that's definitely odd. defective batch of mufflers? i can say that i love the sound of my Bursch also. what RPM does the rattle happen at? all RPMS? just a narrow band? you can try this: rev it to the RPM where it rattles, and try to find what is resonating or rattling at that RPM. offhand, the last time that happened to me it was a heatshield that was not touching when the muffler was cold, but it was close enough to rattle when the car was

1) moving
2) at 3000 rpm
3) warm

check it out, and look the whole thing over, and...

good luck!
