Exclamation Exhaust Leak!

Hey guys-

I was wondering:

I have a small exhaust leak on the foward part of my exhaust. How much HP do you think I am losing from this hole? It is big enough that the damn cops bitched at me because it was louder (than there sick *** Caprice I guess ). Also, when I go to fix it, can I put a NON stock exhaust up front without touching the rest of the system. I want to add a little HP without my Dad noticing (he will get PISSED if I modify anything).

Mike

Your probably not losing any HP from an exhaust leak, unless its a pretty huge gaping hole or something. Is the leak in front of the O2 sensor or after it? If its before the O2 sensor it can cause problems.
