VQ Hiss or other rattle?

From what I've read ,it culminates from the headers/cat area where the sound is actually produced and heard so it doesn't matter what else you have installed downstream as the sound is not coming from the tail pipe(s). Seems to be exhaust pulses hitting the exhaust piping walls in the component bolted the the header.
