Default HELP Strange noise from right rear

I had a clutch , rpm trans and dte brace installed , thats when I noticed the noise coming from the right rear, I had the installer put it back on the rack and the exhaust was hitting the brace. So I fix the exhaust where it will not hit the brace. I thought the problem would be fixed, it sounded like the exhaust was hitting something. Wrong still the same noise. Could the brace be making these noises? Something loose in the suspension? Didn't do it until after install.
P.S. Only does this when taking off from a stop, when coming out on the clutch to take off, doesn't make the noise driving down the road.

maybe the exhaust is still hitting. when you take off from a stop, there is a good amount of weight transfer to the rear which makes the car squat. this could potentially still be causing contact with your brace. good luck
