Exhuast leak?

Hey, I am just wondering what the easiest way to find out if you have an exhuast leak is? Is there a sound diagnosis? See the sig for my exhuast details (it will be hard to hear a small leak!)

Maybe I should just go to a shop and have them check it over quickly....?

Well the easiest way to tell is if your car is abnormally loud
But let it idle, and if a lot of sound is coming from anywhere other than the rear of your car, then chances are you have an exhaust leak.

The leak(s) may be easier to pinpoint if u put a rag on the tailpipes (to block the exhaust).
