    You probably have a hole in your exhaust. Just crawl under there and look for bad rust as that's probably where the hole is. Given my experience with this car, more than likely it's up there in the flex area of the down pipe.

      Do you really need to ask? You have an exhaust leak. That means your exhaust is leaking. It may be the exhaust piping, it may be the muffler, it may be the resonator, it may be the cat, it may be the flex pipe, it may be the resonator. We don't have your car in front of us to look at it. You do. So look at it.

      Also, you don't need a big-ass picture of your car posted in a thread asking about an exhaust leak. We know what a CB7 looks like, and that picture does nothing to help us answer your question.

        I was originally going to reply saying "congrats on figuring out how to start the car and which is the gas pedal" but then it might be misconstrued as flaming so i just told the OP to crawl under and look.

            Where the exhaust components connect can also be loose or the gaskets can be leaking. You can't hear anything coming from my exhaust but my headers have little holes and its a bit loud in the front of the car but silent in the back.

              Yeah, that would've gotten you a vacation (though saying "I was going to say this" is essentially saying it anyway...)
              I'll refrain, since I wasn't very nice either. It's just a bit off-putting to open a thread asking a question that could've been answered with the effort of a single push-up... that includes a big-ass picture of the top of the car that is in NO way related to the problem. Seems to me that the OP just wanted to post a picture of his car and asked the first thing that came to mind.

                try a muffler shop, they should tell you exactly what holes are there and how much to fix.

                      eh it wasn't that bad laying on the ground installing my exhaust. i did one section at a time after installing the flexpipe and took like 30 minutes tops. The key is having every thing within arms reach.

                              Some people are newer to cars and know less about them than you do.
