i just went out and started her cold, felt and listened around the exhaust manifold and all was fine...then i went under the car and sure enough where the cat is welded to the exhaust line there is a crack!! so yeah, thanx for the help though...now i just gotta figure out how to fix it...haha!

My car has always been on the louder side because of the high-flo cat that was installed on it a few years back, but recently (it literally changed overnight) it seems to be like über loud under acceleration or deceleration. it seems like i can hear something like rattle around in the exhaust line sometimes. I'm hoping it's in the exhaust and not an engine prob, but i'm not entirely sure. I have noticed that the engine sounds fine at any constant rpm if i'm just holding the revs, it's just when i blip the throttle that it sounds different.

oh and ever since it started getting loud and raspy i swear it feel faster, which makes me think something came loose and is relieving backpressure...

any thoughts?? i can try to make a vid maybe later today so you can see how it sounds
