After hearing clunking while driving slowly and turning I investigated. Apparently with Fez had some flowmasters put on, whoever did it botched the job pretty badly.

The muffler was hitting the driveshaft over bumps, and there was other general stupidity and Fezness.


1. This tube should be coming out straight, not cocked at an angle.
  
2. This tube was ciut, crushed, and rewelded to get it to fix.

3. Another shot of the same horrible botch job.
  
4. On top of that, the passenger side muffler was rusted out on top, and when you shook it, the baffles inside clanked aroound.

5. Flowmaster. These were super 40's, but since they were rusted out and the baffles all loose, that explains even more why the car was so loud.
  
6. Old drivers side next to new drivers side. I got a screaming deal on a Dynomax catback with super turbo mufflers. Hopefully they will be quieter.

7. This I found later. a poor weld job means big exhaust leaks.

The mufflers being rusted out certainly explains some of the exhaust leak noise I was getting.
