Its all stock it only happens if I press the gas fast. I can drive it normally and after like 3000-3500rpm it will make the rattle I was thinking maybe my 02 housing bold came out or hole in the manifold I'm crossing my fingers I'll fine out tomorrow

Put her on jack stands and remove that undertray if you still have it and while the engine is cold tug away and inspect bro... and if everything is in line as far as no bolts missing etc only thing in that area is the o2 housing downpipe and manifold external wise
Double check the manifold heat shield for looseness and the shield that covers the O2 housing. also the wastegate arm to the turbo could be broke off or the wastegate flapper inside the turbo could be the culprit.

little update* everything exhaust and manifold wise checked out okay so seems to be internal. My friend knew a owner of a Mitsubishi shop so gave him a call and he was nice enough to take the car home for the weekend and find the culprit may be a couple days since he was busy. But he said sounds either a rod knock or loose flywheel. I'll keep a update when I find out more

OMG, you just bought this car didnt you? in california!
Blue by you, aftermarket clutch, Wing is all painted, roof has some faded spots on it?

I saw this car in person and drove it I can tell you it didnt do that. I saw it few months back and its been through an owner since then who tried to flip it (unless its you and you decided to keep it)

Yeah hopefully its the flywheel as mentioned the first time... having a rod go or spinning a bearing sucks but at least there isnt a hole in the block so look at the bright side of getting built short block best case scenario
