Ticking Exhaust

After installing my RS*R a few weeks ago I notice my exhaust ticks. Not a few sperratic times when the car is cooling but near constantly. About every 2-4 seconds "tick". I looked under the car to see where the sound comes from and I am pretty sure its the resonator after the cat. Is there anything I can do to stop or reduce the ticking.

I got the same problem as brendon. For me its while the car is running and after I turn the car off.

No, when the car is off after being run also. It a tick like you get when your exhaust cools on any car but instead of a few ticks its every few seconds. I have checked the cat cover and the sounds doesn't sound like its coming from there.

It'll go away, don't you remember how mine used to tick? Before it goes away though, it'll get really annoying for a little while.
