[QUOTE="HotRodZilla, post: 1362782, member: 13519"] If the pipe is dented to the point of reducing flow, your headed in a bad direction. As in burning an exhaust valve and needing a new head. It's concerning that you can feel a power loss. 1st, inspect your pipes and be sure there are no major dents. A small detent shouldn't cause any issues. If those are acceptable, I'd suspect the header connection before the exhaust pipe, so I'd start there and replace gaskets. JB Weld will NOT work. It's too hot there, but Ross already said that. Be sure there is no separation between the headers and the Cats. If you find a crack or tear, take it to a muffler shop. Welding is cheap. [/QUOTE]
