right my exhuast is blownin where the cat joins at the manifold, check tht it dusnt needt tighening up or nowt, also hav tryed exhaust paste but but it just cracks the paste as it flexes, is there any other way of sorting?

is there a product tht seals it? and also flexs? i thought summat along the lines or silicon tht dusnt melt...

the reason its blowing is cos i clipped my manifold down pipe off a spped bump and has twisted it not much just enough to blow

cheers

get new manifold and a decat pipe, sorted
then avoid speed bumps forever more

(that'll teach you for having a car which is lower than mine)
