So it's like an organ transplant rejection?

Want to fix mine?
I put a rock through the muffler and part of the exahust pipe near the manifold has a little hole in it from a rock ... it whistles at idle!

Come fix mine too!
Just before I parked the Firefly last year, the original 14-15 year old exhaust broke at the cat (cheap junk! ).

Am I the only one who likes a nice vroom from an eco modded vehicle?
Honda Insight with straight pipe
Geo metro with straight pipe. Sounds like I am hauling ass, but I just barely make 35 mph.

Whoa, that Insight sounds good!
My MR2 has a nice grumble from inside the cabin, but I think that has more to do with the lack of sound insulation between the engine 20 inches behind my head and the cabin. I bet the exhaust is pretty quiet from outside. If I weren't so lazy I might try to take a baffle out of the muffler to get some more bass.
