Are you sure you don't have a hole in the exhause line somewhere? Or perhaps a hole in the muffler?

Baffles in the muffler are gone, probably need a new muffler.

a couple buddies of mine also looked at my my exhaust from the cat back to the muffler and didnt find anything...they did however mention to me about looking at the down pipe(?) because it was coming from the front end underneath the car...

in that case start the car an (while still cold) run ur hand all around the exhaust manifold and down pipe, its more than likely a gasket.... good luck
