What is this noise?
I recently swapped a motor from a 2002 i35 into it. The video is of the old motor but it still makes the sound at 1:50 till the end of the video. What could this be?

This sound only occurs when the car is under load. It doesn't make this sound while in park or in reverse. It seems to only happen around 2000 RPMs.

It's hard to tell when listening to the video, but it reminds me of 3 different things. 1) a loose heat shield, 2) spark knock or 3) broken baffles in the muffler.
