(fu) STOCK s***!

Man so i am driving down the highway passing an eclipse and all the sudden i hear this loud ass rumble...i am like man....that car sounds good as hell.....I look at my rear view mirror and it is shaking like hell....wait....i just took my subs out about 4 hours ago wtf???? Yea....ends up it is my car....., i thought it was maybe the turbo or manifold at first...because i did have an exhaust leak after they installed my new turbo....anyway.....look at this s***! My car sounds like a ******* track car running open headers....i have no clue how this happened?

Does warranty cover this....or are they going to **** me over like they did with the LSD?

Yeah this happened to me when I first got my car 2 years ago. Warranty covered mine, but my car was still stock then.
 
cause this has nothing to do with being stock or not....the s*** rusted off!

I guess i am going to have to buy me a turbo back exhaust now if they dont :)
 
can i still drive this? I havent driven this car for a month since the LSD issues...which was fixed right last weekend.....now this.....
 
um, you really shouldnt, that piece *may* snap off if driven harsh, and then its not gonna be warranteed for sure. bring it in!
 
well *MAYBE* if i drive slow i will not victimize innocent bystanders.....if soooo, oh well.....i will take it in tomorrow....
 
i need the car for tomorrow, school and work.....and since i am only 20 i cant get a rental! once again....sucks to be me...
 
ha mine did the same thing in the same place when i got my car. thats funny.
 
I think you'll be fine. I've heard before though that on a car with nearly open headers they can suck air back up through the headers when you shut it off and it can crack a valve. I doubt that the air will travel that far up from the break to the valve
 
That is ****** up. I have an exhaust leak in my Apex downpipe, and now I have to ge back to stock until apex fixes it.
 
Had the same thing happen in my 94 Si. I thought the engine blew up...

At the spot wear mine broke the pipe was hanging done so low, that it created a spark show for everybody behind me on the highway, until that piece of the pipe broke off.(Look out tailgaters!!!)
