I disagree, having sometthing like this right in the flow of exhaust does makes a difference

exhaust restricition usually have larger impact on efficiency than intake restriction because of the larger volume, especially the closer the restriction is it is to the exhaust manifold, this is also why getting a free flowing(tuned) exhaust and headers increase power and efficiency


anyway my car is at the mechanic again and this time for rear brake pads and atf oil change


with a little addative


hopefully she stops slipping between 2nd and 3rd at low throttle input now, atleast it wont hurt

after this it is time for oilchange, power steering fluid flush and lubrication of monowiper
