    Re: putting straight pipe in place of the cat

    Invest in a metabo wheel, a crappy welder as I have, a grinder.. and you'll be set. If you do as good as you can with the ****ty welder, you'll only have to do a little bit of grinding and it turns out.. ok at best. BUT the point is, it gets the job done. And it's always awesome to have a welder on hand. Always.

            yup, thats just what i was about to say.

              Your rattle is most likely a busted up cat - mine was anyway. Does it sound like it's coming from the front pass. side? And if you have the sport/graphics package, I know it's a pain to get under there w/out a jack. 16" - 18" sounds about right.

                cant really tell where it is coming from to be honest.. all i know is that it is so annoying i shift at really low rpms and bog my car down so i dont have to hear it
