@@DIYwithMichaelBorders not big on crypto but I will post on my repairs. Im not sure if my down pipe came out of the catalytic converter or my flex pipe gave out.

There's actually a couple of things wrong with this that I think your viewers should know. First of all, your flexi pipe is the wrong size. It should be wider so it fits on the 'outside' of the original pipe, not the inside. By fitting a smaller pipe inside the original pipe you are reducing the diameter of the exhaust at that point and restricting airflow. This will lower the efficiency of the exhaust. Second, it is not possible to clamp a solid pipe to a solid pipe in the manner you are attempting. The pipe will not compress unless two slots are cut into it on opposing sides first. And third, as I already mentioned in a previous comment, the correct way to do this is to weld it. I speak as a retired motor mechanic.
I do not have access to a welder nor the money to pay someone to weld for me, would the JB be sufficient enough for a few months or should I just live with the exhaust leak until I can afford to have it properly installed?
@@Sticky_Ricky I just got a new flex pipe and resonator for $250 flat. That’s really cheap honestly. The flex pipe alone was $100 for the part and him to weld it. You can’t afford $100?
@@eligreg99 Could it potentially be that I live in a drastically different art of the world than you and can't find someone to weld for $100? The cheapest shop aproud me is trying to get $550 and no, unfortunately I cannot just randomly blow $550 on something that isn't that urgent.

@@DIYwithMichaelBorders Gotta have a sawzall (cuts those pipes like butter). I did this 5 years ago on my elantra and now need another one.
