Default Busted internal OEM exhaust can!!

Well had time today to jack the Z up to find out where this annoying vibration was coming from.It's been confirmed, it's the passenger side exhaust can that has the annoying vibration coming from it.
My Z is a 09, bone stock with a mild to wild and 10k on the clock. Saw a thread, where a member had the same problem and cut the exhaust can open and it looked like a bomb went off inside.

Sounds like it's time to do the exhaust mod. A reputable shop will not only make your Z sound meaner but should reinforce the weakpoints in there. Check out this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQDewJL4knI

Should run you a little over $200 for the labor.

Is your 36 month warranty still in effect. If so let chev fix it.

Just get some Fusions and leave the old cans in the attic for the future owner of your car.
