Car Runs Way Better Now

ok i was driving down the road and all the sudden my 82 gs lost a lot of power and i stopped and opened the door to listen for aything wrong with the car well i hear an exhaust leak and well i went down the next day to tune tech (have friends there) and they checked it out with me and found out the oil cooling lines were leaking which i knew and didnt have time to fix... well we also found that a cat was bad in the exhaust... so i took it down to mach 1 muffler and found out that both were bad and at 150 each i decided to replace 1 and put a strait pipe in place of the other... i left the shop and it was louder which i like and i was waiting at the light ... it turned green and that thing went like i never knew it could i mean tires spinning and all i was bewildered at the power...also the next week i got the oil cooling lines replaced and it only cost me $78 which is good right...well that is the main reason that i was getting 17mpg so now i dont know what i get bcuz i cant keep my foot out of the gas haha

It's always a good sign when the tires spin.
