I think supersize is trying to say that your story isn't relevant... which is why nobody cares... which is true.

things in exhaust will only be blown out.
(example:kid throws a little rock in there, overtime it will come out)
Source-personal experience

replacing the cat/02 sensors is very pricey try finding the source before approaching this, maybe get your car checked with a few mechanics, get a quote.

(and supersize stop bashing on him. he's got a car not many likes, okay. don't hate soo much to where it's annoying)

Not always... stuff can get trapped in the muffler and rattle around.

well, it has absolutely no acceleration....It'll pick up, but only if you drive it regularly(going the speed limit, not hauling ***, etc etc.) But once you try to give it some gas in which ever gear, it sounds VERY VERY clogged for some reason, like its struggling to get air. Once you take your foot off the gas, it'll pick up a little. In otherwords....the early stages of entering the highway, are very tuff, especially up hill.
that was happening to me, but it turned out it was cuz my turbo was clogged by my breather valve which had got sucked in..cuz my filter fell off....>_<
