Default Stock Exaust Question! Help!

I own an '03 with 72,000Miles.

My question is I noticed yesterday when I took the car for an alignment and oil change that the deep sound of the Z exhaust was only coming out from the left one. I feel air coming out from both, but the deep sound was only coming out from the left one. Is this normal? or Do I need to get exhaust checked out?

Thanks

Default odd exhaust

I`m not an expert but I`ll chime in...

I`ve noticed that two-exhaust exit cars don`t always split the work/noise/flow evenly. If you have decent flow coming out of both I wouldn`t be too worried, although it is odd to miss the sound on one side. It clearly sounds like a check would be in order if you value the car highly. As a ``moderate mileage daily driver`` you might just want to live with it.

I had a SHO back in the day, and it spit the metal mesh from a cat down several feet into the middle of the exhaust. Could the Z plug itself up too?

How`s it drive? Performance/idle/mileage still ok?

I kind of feel as if I've lost performance, but the idle is normal. (though I need a clutch) I don't know but it's weird. I feel as if my car isn't breathing right!
