Is this a new problem?
Have you changed something recently to cause this?
Are you running t-pipes?

Jack the car up onto stands and check every nut and bolt on the exhaust. All of them.With the engine running feel around every connection.Make sure there are no holes anywhere.

How old are the 02 sensors?
