redrider150 here you go...the rattle might be a broken hanger and your pipes are just hitting the frame and there shouldnt be a reason to get hi flow maggie cats JUST GET 'EM

as for my set up...2 maggie hi flow cats, part number 94106, tru dual flowmaster 10 series, H pipe (makes it idle a little queiter and evens the exhaust flow into both mufflers) ran back 45'd into 3.5"x18" tips my exhaust clip is my signature if you havent checked it out already

Wow man your new system does sound good.

And for the sounds it doesnt sounds like a broken hanger because I had a broken one before and it sounds way different.

My dad had the same problem on his avalanche it was like a metallic buzzing sound and when he got it checked they said his cats were bad.

Oh well I'm getting High Flows Anyways

yea dude i know!!! i want it cammed so bad!
and seafoam is just an injector cleaner...suck it through the brake booster line and let it sit for 5 or 10 minutes crank it up and itll smoke like crazy! meaning its cleaning all that carbon outta there...and pour the rest in your tank so itll clean the fuel lines out

Oh ok thats badass how it makes it sound!! too bad it didnt stay like that for a while!!

Also when adding sea foam after the carbon has been cleaned out can you notice a difference after driving it?

Btw do you know how much it would run to get it cammed???

Well I'm a certified Ford Tech, have done work in Nascar, work on a drag team, and do high performance modular engines. My truck is old, and has lots of mods from over the years, but I can tell you that high flows are a waste, period. But take it as you desire, my two precats haven't set the CEL, it still passes emissions, and I made money by cutting them off, and can say that the factory precats will flow equally well as high flows, if not better due to their shorter body and less catalyst. But if everyone still has to have those high flows, go ahead don't let that $160 burn a hole in your pocket.

yea it cleans out the carbon and and injectors...and yea if its really dirty then yea youll notice a difference...as far as the cost of gettin it cammed...i dont have the slightest idea dude i was thinkin about 300 for the cam itself..then idk what else you would need for it...maybe lifters idk then get some one to do it..
