You might want to check your heatshields. The welds can rust and cause it to rattle against metal. If that's the case, you'd probably just want to take the heat shield off, since it's not really necessary for the safety or operation of anything. Keep in touch!

Perhaps a bent hanger touching something? or broken ceramic in your cat?

Harmonics arent the same at all ranges. Have someone sit in the car and rev it for you while you lay underneath
