Hi, me again. Thanks for the responses on the idle speed inquiry; I
forgot to mention that my butterfly plates were already soldered up (I
guess I shouldn't have claimed that the car was "bone-stock").
ANYWAY...
A far more annoying problem is the hole in my center resonator. A
couple of years ago I replaced all three pieces of my three-piece
exhaust with the OEM mild steel stuff. Now the center section has a
crack at the resonator/pipe weld. I wanna bag it and stick in a
straight pipe. It tends to drag the ground anyway.
Other than the requirement for adequate flow, I don't know diddly about
exhaust system theory. Why are there two resonators, and how differently
will my car behave if I eliminate the forward one?
Thanks, guys.
