    Good news and not so bad news [pic and video!]

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Ok, not so bad news first, on my way to work this morning, i hear a sound that nobody likes to hear, an exhaust leak : \.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmzSJiIw4tM





    And then the good news, which negates the bad news!







    I'm pretty sure the leak is either a cracked exhaust manifold or some gasket that's fucked up. Maybe the cat?

    I'm almost positive it's not the turbo except for one of the flange gaskets on either side.
    Please take the effort to make me feel unworthy!

    What exhaust is on your car, Sounds like a open downpipe, or is that the leak?

    Thats one hell of a leak. My only guess could be a cracked maniold, or a few bolts worked themselves loose.

    Yeah when I stick my hand inbetween the manifold and the turbo you can feel air blowing so i'm almost positive it's the manifold. I'll probably just replace for the time being.

    that thing is gonna be laggy as shit... you'd be much happier with a 50 trim.
    what are your goals?
