hi people'
need a bit of advice if possible, got a 355 which i have had the cats removed and a tubi put on been fine up to now,it now has a blowing sound from the right hand side of the engine and when you put your arm as far as it can go i can feel exhaust wind can anyone tell me were its comming from. hope its the cat replacements pipe that have come loose and not the dreaded manifold? thanks steve

thanks for that

not sure wat it can be, if you stand behind the car and lean in as far as you can go then put your arm dowm the right hand side of the engine past the tubi etc nearly opposite the air ducts on the outside of the car thats were the blowing is, are there any pipes down in that area?

well found out the blowing is the cooling fan (doh) but the exshaust is still making a burburing sound instead of the clear throaty sound as before, been to graypaul and jeff round the corner, and it has got to go on the computer to find out wats up with it as it sounds like its missing sometimes? still idles fine and power still the same, but theres a bad exshaust smell in the cockpit so i will have to wait till thursday to fine out wat it is.
