well she got the innards of that funny shaped thing at the endof the down pipe knocked out as i thought it was clogging, u bend delete with Anti fouler Trick, new plugs and wires and just picked up a coil to replace the crapped out one that was actually my issue
lthe other night she was lacking power and when i went to pull her in the garage she reaked like rotten eggs
pipe and antifoulers from orielly $11
instead of getting a 02 bung we drilled a whole and us inserted the anifouler into the pipe and welded it in
(don't mind the welds we where having issues with the oxygen and the wire was rusty)
inner view
welded on, didn't plan it the best should have moved the o2 and hanger back a little but works just fine

Some updates the coil was not my issue, ended up being the ignition module,
And some more discoveries and bad news,
Turns out my exhuast leak is not from the parts we welded on, I wish I would have stuck to my original plan and pulled off the down pipe, but we didn't and we messed up the flex section of the down pipe when we pounded out the cat , so going to look into things a bit more, price things out and will likely build my own, also discovered my res is probably got another year left on it,

After a little over a month of my car sounding like butt, it's quiet again,
3in non catted Stainless wbodystore downpipe$89(black friday deal)
Cat back exhaust gasket$5
Thrush 28in glas pack$27
$112 total or so i'm happy with the result!!
Cut the stock res off as i could see it was going to need replacing in about a year anyways,
Used stock car back flange, small piece of pipe and a 28in thrush glass pack, i was hoping for a shorter one but this is what they had in stock for 2.5in and i didn't feel like making multiple stops
I was kind of hopeing it would be a little louder but once the glass pack breaks in it should change the tone a bit!
Don't mind the craptacular welds... They don't leak so thats what counts!!!
