High-flow catalytic converters and test pipes make unusual noises yes.

no problem, it is hard to say without hearing it. Are your gaskets old? I will be installing berk hfc soon, I will let you know if I hear anything like that.

I had RT cats and I had the hissing noise you describe with throttle lift at low rpms. When I changed out to Crawford cats it never happened again.
