Re: CAT Killer

I agree... all that has happened is the "honeycomb"  (screen) element that 
the exhaust gases flow through has broken loose from the interioir of the 
cat.  I doubt that it has anything to do with the cone filter... I would 
replace it soon... Mine did the same and the constant rattling made me dread 
getting in my car after about a week...
