I was on my way up to school about a month ago, and was driving a long at about 90mph N on I95 just south of Jacksonville in FL heading back to school in Marietta Ohio.
All I heard over the music was the sound of a downshifting semi! Well I looked to the left, to the right, and behind, and there was no one around..it was ME! I just see sparks flying from the rear.
Ok, figured I lost the muffler. I get out, and just see the whole system laying on the ground! Pop the hood, yup thats not good! Got a tow truck out there, took me to a muffler shop, he redid the weld, and for $20 I was on my way in under 2 hours!
I had the wrap on heatshielding as recommended to me to protect the innerdriver boot/grease, but I have since removed it due to the obvious rust issues on pipe and welde. I also have installed a new 2.5" cat-back turbo exhaust and it sounds GREAT...not raspy, just a very nice throne, especially when you get on it above 3k!!!
I also have a 600k video/movie/sound clip of the engine sound when it dropped if you are interested in it. Just email me , duthiej@marietta.edu and I will reply with it attached....
