Default rattling cat converter

So, my cat converter seems to be rattling, already had to replace O2 sensor b/c part of the cat broke off and knocked the sensor apart. Now I have the check engine light again and I'm sure its the same issue.

My car has 65k miles on it, but I have an intake and VAFC installed, so not sure if this would be a free replacement from Honda.

Any particular place to get used or cheap Cat Converter?

How about you test pipe guys, still have your original cat to sell?

FYI

The cat, O2 Sensor and the rest of the emissions system is covered under an 8yr/80k wanty. See your dealer if you are under 80K, because we all are under 8yrs.

And if you want to by a cat, I have one I am willing to sell. 125 + 12 shipping and PP Fees and it is yours.

If you're smart, you'll yank all the mods off before you take it to the dealer. Either that or pay out of pocket for the fix.
