hey,, i have my 01 tiburon and the engine sounds like its clogged or stoped up,sounds like a lawn mower. i pulled the converter from under the car and it looks just fine. im wondering if its a exhaust leak??? but i see that there is a cat-like looking pieces that flows down from the exhaust manifold. is this another catalytic converter?? and if so could it be stopped up and cause the lawn mowing sound? i was thinking if a headder will also solve this problem...

can someone help me??? thanks
