Funny/Upsetting story about my magnaflow hi-spun cats

In January I built my own TD setup with the magnaflow hi-spun cats and sweet thunder mufflers (which are for sale right now) and am now going with a different setup. About 2 months after I setup the system my passanger side cat started rattling like crazy, as if the brick was loose inside the cat. I didnt feel like messing with it at the time because I just setup the exhaust and was looking up warranty info. Anyway, a few months of driving with that rattle it just disappeared and never came back. (all this time was about 1k miles)
Here today I am removing the xpipe because my new setup is coming in the mail today and I look in the pipe just out of curiosity as to why it stopped rattling. Only to find the brick is no longer inside the cat, and then i look in the other cat on the other side and its still there. Im guessing that after it became loose it was bouncing around in there and just slowly deteriorated and is no longer there.![Rolleyes](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/rolleyes.gif)
Just thought that was a funny story to share and also a for-warning to not purchase that product lol.

well at least it didnt cause any damage. i worked on a friends Camaro one time that the brick came loose and completely clogged up the exhaust on that side, over heated the motor and fryed it.
