Returning from town, this afternoon, and began to get loud exhaust noises from under the hood. By the time I drove about five miles, the noise was very loud. Still plenty of daylight left, and I determined the noise was coming from the area underneath the air cleaner assembly.

When I removed the air cleaner, I found a break in the part of the exhaust that is an accordian-shaped piece, bolted to the back of the turbo, then to the front of the flex exhaust pipe. I have been to Fastlane, and see no part listed by Phil that sounds as if it is what I am looking for. I do not want to chance doing damage to the turbo, and can't abide all that racket.

Someone please clue me in. TIA.
