yup its definitely leaking somewhere! lol @ shop did your install better take a look at it yourself... you could try some color smoke to see where its leak from.

if the O2 sensors were messed up in the process of installing the mid pipe, that could be a problem too.

06isDriver

Yes, it will cause the o2 sensors to throw a cel because the air is leaking out before it can read it, most likely throwing a rich condition or an o2 sensor "failure" cel. Get your codes checked, reinstall the midpipe, and if you understand the codes that were thrown, clear your ecu by pulling the fuses.

do these things at your own risk, btw.

On my car, after install this mid-pipe, I hate their drone sound. My friend suggest to change the rubber which hang the pipe with Urethane.

thats not gonna stop the drone.....it may stop your exhaust from squeaking while it shimmies around, but thats it.
