Exhaust Rusted through, what do? So I was driving the other day and out of nowhere my car became extra loud. Normally I pay for those sort of things but this was odd. So I got home and inspected and found that the header cracked (see: rusted through) at the flange almost half way around. Heres a pic:
Anyways, my first thought was to get to welding but I have a sneaking suspicion that, that isn't going to work this time. As far as I'm aware you can't just buy one header either so this won't be cheap. What do you guys think? Got any ideas?
