Default What the hell?

Ok so i have an exhaust leak right now. and it is right before the muffler. now the pipe is pretty much shot. but for some reason it feels like have a little more power in midrange[sm=wtf.gif] now the only thing i can think of is that there is less restriction from the muffler... but is this even possible... i mean it very well could be all in my head... but i thought it was funny.. anyone have input on it feel free..

Man does it sound ricey too. Catless exhaust with a leak... oh and the baffles in the muffler are shot too so it doesn't help either lol

yes running catless will give you about a 1-3 hp gain. but not recomended. because no 02 sensor
