Default Greddy Header Noise? B16 (video of problem) leak?

So i finished putting in my s2 IM and it was all good, untill i put in my greddy header it sounded like i had an exhaust leak were it connects to the cat, but i checked it twise and no leak, but it also started to rattle in first gear i sounded like a ricer, so i took it to a muffler shop to check for leaks and he said it didnt have any, he even lifted the car and reved it an he said it was all good. So should i be hearing this noise, is it normal, does it go away? ill try and get a video clip, but over all the car runs about normal no loss of power just an anoying sound

well after watching the video myself again, yeah i really didnt do such a good job showing what im talking about, it sounds like im hitting the heat shield but im not, i hear it when i drive next to a curb a loud *** hizzing sound, i did use my oem doughnut gasket i might just buy a new one and put on my test pipe maybe its the cat making the noise.
