Andrew, was this the clamp connection after the catalyst on the passenger side?


Yes. My setup is LT headers into an X pipe, into 2 high flow cats, back to PE exhaust. The C clamps connected the in and out sections of both cats. I think this was the main reason for the popping. The only part not welded any longer is the connection to the collectors.

If you look close, you can see the old C clamps hanging in front of the rear tire.

Also at WOT, the car would squat and rub the ends, creating sparks. The would also drag easy, so it was no wonder the pipes would move or shift.
