[Shotimes] exhaust question

[Shylo McKinsey]

Honestly, I have no idea. I was at a muffler shop
having the resonator (or whatever the heck the piece
of pipe between the Y-pipe and the mufflers is)
replaced, and they supposedly checked out the mufflers
and the cats and said everything looked ok.

Sorry...
