Either close to box or floor will cause this as Rob says

I'd say floor due to engine movement when on boost

ive had no end of problems with all my exhausts ive had on, speedbumps knock it up and then start it rumbling on the floor, the reason why i say the 3'' systems as they are very tight neer the gear box/tunnel and at the back by the diff...

like paul says check theres a good distance from the floor as engine movement can cause it to hit..
