Brendan XR6-T Member 88 Member For: 15y 5m 20d Gender: Male Posted 05/05/10 04:38 AM Share Posted 05/05/10 04:38 AM I had my cntr muffler replaced some time ago now, from an exhaust shop in Windsor I have notice since then occasionally over some speed humps it scrapes (my car isn't lowered) I decided to throw my car up on the hoist today and noticed that there is no exhaust bracket between the turbo to the exhaust bracket right near the diff which explains y it bellys a little in the middle of the car. Is there supposed to be an exhaust bracket in the middle somewhere aswell just seems like alot of weight on 2 points?? Thanx in advance for any replies..

But one thing, the shop I went to get it done at, the guy that was doing the work for me seemed pretty rude to me about the whole thing, even making a point to me that its the cheapest thing I could have done to my car, like its some big bad thing I did. Basically treated me like crap, so I'm never going back there again!Anybody else had similar experiences? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would a bigger tip make a difference or just more drone? Edited 04/08/10 04:58 AM by Dillz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
