I noticed the other day that the bottom of the front pipe
http://protege5.ugly.net/01-15.PDF page 01152 item 4
had a bunch of dings in it. These run perpendicular to the length of the pipe. I didn't see any holes though. Presumably a previous owner did this, as I think I would have remembered any impact(s) that did that much damage. I'll try to get some pictures tonight, but I'd guesstimate the deepest one isn't bent inward more than half an inch. What's the inside diameter of that pipe? Is that much of a pinch going to restrict the exhaust enough to make a difference? The car runs fine.
