Horrible rattle when decelerating ( o2 dump related )

Car : Evo 9 GSR
Mod : full bolts-on , stock block , blox front motor mount !! EPM o2 Dump Housing v2 and ETS V2 LICP

Okay after 6 months of ownership , i'm exhausted of hearing that rattle . It always happen when I lift off throttle , cruising at 45mph and up .

I think the problem is obvious . I have a blox front motor mount, and my EPM o2 Dump Housing v2 is touching the ETS v2 LICP

Now , i think the ETS V1 would clear the EPM v2 as i may saw on other topic . But considering that the ETS v2 is better than the V1 , what is my best bet to kill that rattle . Any othe brand or idea to makes some clearance ?

Thanks !

Can you extend the licp out a little by loosening the clamp and slightly pulling the pipe out a bit? Looks like you have some room.

By loosening the clamp i was able to lower the licp and get a like a quarter of a inch of space between the 2 pipes . But the problem is that the licp sits way too low and it will be dangerous to ride the car like this .
