Fixing exhaust
Hoookay. My exhaust is in, pitiful, disgusting, shape. The muffler has holes in it and is clogged, and the cat is clogged. The back pressure is so bad you can here the motor miss, then the pressure get released and it keeps going. not like a stumble, you just here a miniscule jump. And it sounds like i got ghetto exhaust on it with the clogged cat and the rot in the muffler. So is it worth it to go to the exhaust shop and have them install a new muffler, and probably pipes? Or should i just scrounge for some pipes and buy a muffler and do it myself? I may or may not get access to a welder, if that matters.
Also, has anyone "modified" their cat, by cutting it off, welding in a piece of pipe, and welding the cat shell back over it? AND, isn't there a time period, like 25 or 30 years were you don't have to pass emissions, like having a cat? I know its a lot of ????s but I'm really curious.
