A couple of times, I have heard some rattling at high RPM in the Miata. I'm not sure what it is, but it doesn't seem serious. I did discover a possible cause--the heat shield on the header was missing some bolts.
I took a bolt that I had removed from another part of the car and replaced it.

There was also a nut missing. A stainless washer and nut took care of that.
You can see another missing bolt in this picture. I tried to replace it, but the old bolt is actually broken off in there, making it pretty tough to install a new one.
