Y-pipe flex joint replace...

Hey guys, for the last 2-3 weeks my car was really louds, so today I took it to a local tuning shop for them to have a look. I mean the entire cat-back has been replace for a Cattman 2 months ago, so I was like wtf, anyway find out the flex joint on the Y-Pipe was shot so they put a new one and charge me 125$ CDN including labor, very happy of the jobs and the car sound great. The car pull much better than it was for the last few weeks.

Yup. You lose alot of torque from a leaky flex section.

The flex joint is now a little longer than the one that came on the Cattman Y-pipe originally, I dont know if that has any effect but my b*tt dyno will tell my soon enough.
