Where the hell did you learn how to type...seriously. Leave it save money and buy a new exhaust.

I'm a bit of an amateur welder myself, but in the past when I've tried to weld friends exhausts, I've found that the metal was too thin at the area it rusted through, and that my welds simply melted the metal.

Perhaps it's just my newness at welding that did it. Or, it could be my welder, which has a high and a low setting for heat

On a keyboard? Where did you learn to type?

My concern is either welding the hole, or getting a new downpipe. Suggestions?

wouldnt you gain airflow with holes in the exhaust?

Hmm. its like blowing threw a straw with hole on in. Less air because of so many places the air can come out. It would be the same thing with the holes in the exhaust.

You can leave it if you want your car to sound like a getto peace of crap. It should not cost much to fix, its free if you have a welder.

Wow...

I had a hole in my old CB's exhaust for a long time. It didn't sound too horrible, so I didn't do anything about it. And then I wrecked it.

But anyway, if you don't mind the sound, leave it until you can replace it. If you hate the sound, then do something about it right away. A hole in your muffler isn't going to cause a noticeable amount of turbulence in flow, so it shouldn't rob your car of anything except for the stock exhaust note.

a bootlegged temp fix I used in the past is tin foil and an aluminum can wrapped around the hole. use two or three hose clamps to secure it to the rest of the pipe. I wouldn't do that too long maybe a week at most until you can buy a new exhaust to slap on.

I'm sorry but this is one of the most pathetic posts I've seen. Can you please make an effort to type at some level beyond that of a 3rd grader? In my experience threads get a lot more helpful replies if they're OP doesn't sound like a retard.

Wow! What a difference. The grammar between these two post went from a first grader to a 9th grader (including the run on sentence). All joking aside, I just found that to be soo mismatched that I was compelled to say either great job at learning very quickly or funny @ss joke.

I'm not sure what you're talking about
I put the utmost care into every post I make.

That's just the thing, the car sounds normal. I think it may be because the crack has been slow to form, and I've gotten used to the sound.

Also, the crack is in the downpipe.

I also thought about this. I think the proximity to the flex pipe and hanger could pose a problem.

well if its on the pipe and not the flex just weld it if its the flex it will coast u about $216ish for a new one bc i had to replace mine, it really doesnt hurt anything but ur gas mileage.

Are you running the stock setup? Ebay headers, which include everything that's leaking on your car, are a dime a dozen. I wonder if JB weld would patch it up.

[CBro7]

I'd go ahead and replace my whole exhaust system if it's stock... Since I'd be replacing it anyway. Lol.
