So I put the shosource single exhuast on with a magnaflow muffler, It fit like a glove and went in fine and has caused no problems, i also put in the bigger radiator because i live in the hot desert and sit in rush hour alot. Other than those things and a cone Air filter and new fuel pump and fuel filter i have dont anything other than scheduled oil changes and brakes. Yesterday will driving something weird started happening, upon acceleration there is a slight vibration in the gas pedal, and the exhuast and or engine sounds louder and i also noticed what sounds like a suction noise near the intake manifold on the side by the brake compressor my thought is a vaccum hose has come off and the car is running with the butterflies open through all rpms, but is that possible? Or is It something else? Please give any thoughts its much appreciated! Thanks for any help!

you have acquired a vacuum leak. the only solution is to trace all the vacuum lines until you find the culprit.

we can speculate, but it would be pointless....

after driving more i agree, it sounds like its close to the interior of the car on the tranny side, but i haven't had a chance to find out exactly where yet. tomorrow ill check it out, in sure its just a vacuum leak. I didnt know what to think until i heard what sounded like a leaking tire from my engine bay. thanks again!
