thats pretty much what i thought, either heat shield or the exhaust vibrating or something of the sort.... i took it down to my mechanic to take a look and just my luck it decided to stop for that particular hour only -.- ... well its nothing serious so ill just jack it up some time and try figure something out

Mine does the same thing! Shorty header, Megan mid pipe with DC sport cutback. But I also use Avid mount kit.

My car makes that rattle, too, I believe in my case it's the plastic cover over the injectors...
