I own a 2001 TA WS6. I have a Flowmaster exhaust with a cut-out. I installed the cut-out about 4 months ago. It was loud and sounded great, until 3 days ago. For some reason the car feels under powered, and quieter. It almost feels like there is no torque in the car. Also, to give some relation ... I drive around town at 50mph (4th gear), but the last three days I feel like I should be in 3rd. I usually engine brake and lately it just seems like the lower gear doesn't slow the car any. Any ideas? Anybody else ever experience a similar problem? Any help or advise would be great!!!

 

Clogged cat.

It'll quiet your exhaust, kill your power, and hurt fuel economy.

Get it fixed.

 

How much would something like that cost to fix? Anyone else ever experience this situation?

 

You must have a clogged cat, my 1st camaro did that and started runing crappy.

 

Yup, clogged cat.

 

just get some longtubes and an off road pipe

no more cats to clog

 

AHAHAHAHA, i had the same thing happen to me, only mine sounded like a jet at WOT, just stick some **** in the cat and unclogg it or as we here like to say !Cat, gut that bitch.
