Another funky thing happened to my car tonight! What's going on?
 

I was at a light waiting for a green ... the lane beside me is going to end b/c there is construction up ahead ... some silly Lude is beside me revving ... so as soon as it turns green I'm off ... but I have some crazy as$ wheel-hop ... like I've never had b4 ... I don't know why ... maybe cuz the rubber from the Toyo's are so good? :gotme:

Anyways ... afterwards ... my exhaust note is completely different .. it's not as deep .. kinda soft & a little gurgly & it seems to be coming from right under the shifter ...

Has this happened to anyone? Do you have any idea what it could be?

Check your y-pipe, do you have an aftermarket y-pipe?

yea, I bet your y pipe has a crack in it.
usually cracks near the flange where it bolts up to the rear banks, or crack at the joint where two into one.
Your exhaust sound should be louder though.

Yeah .. I have the Cattman ...

If it's cracked ... I'm screwed right? I mean .. is it repairable or worth repairing or should I get another one?

did you notice any power lost?

yes ... the car felt like I was driving in a gear that was too high for the speed I was going ...

Your flex section might be messed up.

You're right ... read what I discovered after lifting the car just now.
