    Dual LEAKING Exhaust!

    yeah so last night i was driving around with TheAntiRice and i noticed something wrong with the car. i didnt know wtf was wrong but w figured it was the restrictor plate in the catback moving around. well i dont think its that and my car has NO power whatsoever now untill i can find out if somethings lose or something very bad. oh well. thanks HPA for your HPA SPECIAL! maybe thats partly why they dont have a shop anymore....

    im not giving my thoughts on work done at HPA, id rather have no exhaust on my car then let them touch it, what car is this and what components are on there? ie H or X pipe if any, Y-pipe, cat, cut outs?
    PM me if you dont want to say on here, just trying to tell you where to look.

    Exhaust leaks would not make the car feel noticeably slower. My friend once took off his whole exhaust system, and ran straight headers at the track. The car ran 2 tenths slower, nothing you would notice while cruising around in your car.
