Dude if you dont want advice, then dont friggen ask for help!
How was any of what I said negative? You said its the same cat - I said they do not last forever. Im sorry if you expected your car to last 1,000,000 miles without replacing anything. Shit breaks, bolts loosen - things fall off. It happens...

yeah, he can help, but he doesn't need to be a smart ass about it. the sound is not coming from my cat. it's coming from the joint between the pipe hooked up to the cat and the midpipe. if it was the cat the sound would be coming from it, and it's hard to imagine that it would happen to something i've always had on the car right when i installed something new. i would figure it would be the new item, which it is.

I had a similar issue with my exhaust but between the manifold and the cat, turns out it was a loose heat shield where part of the seam popped. I actually fixed it in about 5 minutes with some pliers and a strap clamp.

I found that it only makes the noise when I turn to the right and not the left. Obviously when I turn right the weight is going left, so it's rubbing on the left side or something. Any ideas?

best thing you can do...
get a jack, get up under there, start jiggling your exhaust around to find out what's loose. Your heat shield almost looks like another piece of pipe around certain parts of the exhaust, up front under the seats closer to the motor. All it takes is something to be just a tad loose, the right RPM's, (or in your case a weight shift when you turn) and noises happen. Just climb under there and see what's wrong, find out whats loose, find a way to tighten it. Take ya 10 minutes. good luck -wheel
