Trouble

I noticed a wierd rattle sound coming from the back of my C5 about 2 months ago. I figured it was the B&B triflow exhaust. 1st off it is kinda wierd because it will only do it when the car is in gear and on the ground (not on the lift). It's between 1300 and 1600 rpm and also around 2200 rpm. It has gotten worse as time has gone on too. I took it to the exhaust shop, and we did a couple things to test it. Of coarse it wouldnt do it on the lift. So we took it for a ride. It did it, but the exhaust guy said the sound of it was funny. Long story short... we did circles and on a left turn it still would do it. But not on the right. After making a circle to the right for 30 seconds or so the noise stops even when driving stright right after for 30 seconds or so, but it slowly comes back.... Do you follow me? He thought it wasnt the exhaust but possibly the CV or U joints. Well of coarse I take it to the dealer and they say no way! It's the exhaust..... Has anyone had an experience with something like this? It's very frustrating! I think I will have to put the stock catback on to see if it stops. Any help would be appreciated!
