Hey Tony, I talked to you close to a week ago and we discussed my leaking exhaust. If I remember correctly the last thing we spoke about was getting Midas to check and see if the flange is warped and to make sure they are using the HTS correctly. Well, I talked to them and they are insisting it is not warped but can not decide on what to do about it. One person there wants me to find a metal gasket and the other wants to use another type of sealant. Honestly I am tired of talking to them about it and am highly considering trailoring the car over 2000 miles to you so you can do it right. Anyways, the main reason I am contacting you is because I am wondering what are the damages of leaving the problem until May when I could possibly take it to you. Or should I just take it somewhere else? The exhaust isn't leaking into the car so thats not an issue.

12". The smaller the resonator, the louder the exhaust.

They do not know that the flanges are warped unless they actually take it off and check it. Since they apparently cannot get the silicone right, call up Bryan at Berk Technology and buy two gaskets. Either way, the pipes are going to have to come off to either put new silicone on (correctly) or install the gasket. Just make sure that you scrape all of the silicone off if you use the gasket. Call me if you need to...

Thanks, Tony

Sorry bud, I got wrapped up with the headers. I have it about half way done. I will do my best to have it in the mail tomorrow or Thursday at the latest. Thank you for your continued patenice...

The current wait time is 6-8 weeks. Just to give you the heads up, we do not bill you until we ship.
