Just installed a new stainless manifold, down pipe and decat on my 202. However it sounds abit sh1t between 2500. It sounds tinny/raspy. Has anybody got any thoughts as to what might be the cause?

The header itself and the removal of the cat. What you can do to help is install a small Magnaflow Magnapack(glasspack) past the downpipe to help cancel out any harsh unwanted frequencies. Like Bitter mentioned double check for leaks, particularly at the mating surfaces as the gaskets they include don't tend to be the best. Another option to help would be to use a chambered muffler to further cancel out harsh frequencies.
