I also have been threw 4 cats and I just hit 40k miles. However, my last cat
was a car sound. (I work for car sound) However once again, the problem is
that the exhuast gases are getting so hot that it burns away the matting,
leaving the brick inside able to move and beat its self to death. We are
currently working on a prototype this week of we get time. We are going to
stamp the shell of the converter with ridges deeper than normal so exhuast
gases flow directly through the brick and do not blow against the mattting
deep in the ridges. My carsound converter took 14000 to blow instead of the
usual 8000 or so from dodge. If you replace yours with a car sound, keep the
old cat in a box. Thats what I did and my dealership (Tustin Dodge) was
willing to still warrenty my converter.
