The best $45 I ever spent was getting a "test" pipe to replace the cat on my 6.0. The 2nd best $45 was having the muffler replaced with straight pipe.
Get rid of both, your engine and exhaust will thank you.

Sounds like a clogged cat. Take the exhaust loose at the front of the cat and see if its plugged up.
Know anyway to take care of this problem? Might add that it gets better after driving a little. Not sure if it helps.

How do you go about doing that?
Also got the front part of the cat lose took for ever and a few bottles of WD-40 to lossen all the rust. I could not see down it but emptied half a bottle of heavy engine degreaser down the pipe helped a lot. Now if I could get the other end of the cat that the clamp is on I'd take it off and spray a few bottles down it.
Funny I was told by some one to drill a hole in the cat and fill with cooking oil and burn the guts out of the cat.
Sorry guys just learning about fixing my own diesel and doing stuff like this so if I ask dumb things you know why. I'm trying to take care of these problems more on my own and not have to take it into a shop.
