Shifter linkage is no where near your cat. So no...its not that. I hear a big noise when I do that as well, but its my exhaust gurgling....

i meant cable, but i think i know what the problem is. i think that when the engine torques in the shifting process , it bangs the cable into the cat sheild. its is better and worse at different rpms
