exhaust rumble noise in floor....

well Im selling my car and had a guy look at it thats not fimiliar with the thrd. gen cars,my car has a full 3" flowmaster exhaust
with hooker headers and I had put 2 straps of wire on the long piece of pipe heading to the back to snug it up closer to the body for a little more ground clearence,well when doing this as you can imagine gives it a rumble that you feel in the body because its actualy conected to the pass. side floor where that steel bracket
is on the floor,and under decleration its more so then if cruising..
well I explained to him its going to do that being the way its set up,and he seemed to think it was my trans. which shifts better and tighter than any 3rd gen. ive owned...how else can I explain to him its the exhuast and not the trans thanks
