I have started the process of repairing the middle muffler. I am considering just getting a new one. here is my question though: On my car, the middle muffler id attached to the CAT with a standard flange set up. The other end.. attaching to the pipe to the rear muffler appears to be welded. It looks as though the middle muffler, the pipe, and the rear muffler are all one peice. Is this correct? If so, does everyone just cut the pipe to install a replacement middle muffler like Fastlane offers?
