mine is a wierd style apparently or something... its 2 pipe instead of one...and its completely different from that of an H22..
ANYWAYS Heres how my experience went..
1) ill never go to midas again.. the 18 yr old kid they had looking at my car had no clue
2) i went to economy muffler and the hole on my flex pipe was just where the bracket welds onto the pipe..so economy just welded it back on... he also found a crack at the end of my exhaust and welded that
at the end of the day my problem was solved for $37.50 and my exhaust is now lower and quieter then it was before i fucked it up
so thanks again midas you can now suck my ballsack.. |

Shiza, no more midas for you, haha.
at least it was a cheap problem though man, or else thats no fun for the summer.
Good and bad experiences I guess, the guy that helped me wasn't so young. At least it was 35 bux :bthumbup: |
