JK, welcome

oh I forgot to mention that it really makes noise when I accelerate. I don't know if that has any significance but I'll be maintaining speed, it'll start to resonate and increase while I accelerate until it decides to shut up. Any ideas?

i could make mine rattle on command with a sharp rev, then it would go away after a while, also it would come and go with bumps. At first i thought it was some stray metal in the cat or muffler, but it was just the heatshield. If it will do it when you rev have someone sit in it and keep doing it till you get an idea of where it is coming from
