I know there is no real power gain between a stock, or "race" CAT but has anyone got any advice as to why I should go for any particular one?

Basically I've been running a decat pipe for a while and the "boom" is getting a bit much and with MOT looming I thought I'd whack the standard CAT back on. Reduced the boom a bit but found that the CAT has a slight rattle which means the exhaust sounds like an tin can full of nails under load (I assume this is the pob. as it's fine revving without load).

Any suggestions?

I believe Elise Parts sell a Sports CAT for around £190. About half the price of an official Lotus CAT and I understand gives a much better exhaust note.
