    Loud exhaust

    So the exhaust is loud and the reason is obvious. My question is can I weld a new flex pipe in or do I have to replace the whole pipe.

    just go to an exhaust shop and get it fixed bro. should be a cheap cut and weld fix. Shit, if it was me I'd just put a new exhaust system in it.

    The one shop I took it to quoted me 150 without seeing it then insisted the whole pipe be replaced and quoted 394 just for the pipe... I told them where they could stick it...

    Yes...you aren't getting any backpressure and the motor will be sluggish and will effect MPG.

    You can buy just a new flex section and any good exhaust shop can weld it.

    Sounds like a good time to replace the entire exhaust system!

    I hope this got fixed before the snow fell.

    Ive welded in new flex sections on a couple of my galants.
    Last one I bought I got from Carquest.
