Exhaust question, need advice.

[AP3X83]

I was working under my car and noticed what I think is a small exhaust leak. No clue exactly what all this is. Can anyone identify what my current setup is? This car is a Roush stage 2.
Another question is what parts should I use for repairing the section that's leaking? Don't want obnoxiously loud. Thanks in advance.

I'd take this opportunity to install catless headers before the stock cats damage your forced induction engine. Two birds one stone.

Looks to be a stock exhaust.

The part you identified as leaking is a flexible pipe.

It doesnt affect sound, its straight through and simply flexes so normal engine movement on it's mounts does not cause the exhaust to shift out of position.

It will need to be cut off and replaced. Replacements are usually welded on, dont know if there are clamp-on versions available.

As suggested you may want to look into any exhaust mods and do them at this time.

I agree remove the cats,and that leak is coming from the flex joint, if install LTH an the cats it will get louder so keep the suitcase on until you know what it sounds like.

Higher end of budget headers would be?
If such a thing exists.
