Clarification

I should clarify my somewhat ambiguous post. I do not advocate cutting open the catalytic converter. I was actually referring to the resonator. The catalytic converter has rarely been a problematic noise maker. It is nearly always the resonator that developes the tinny sounding buzz and is the one that the member on here had a fix for opening it and welding in an interior piece and then closing it. Another option, of course is to simple cut out the resonator and replace with a straight piece of exhaust pipe.
