Alrite you guys..seems like my camry is losing power..my dad told me i need a new header pipe..cause it gives me a weird noise like im losing air somewhere underneath the car..i wanna know if theres anything else that can make me lose power..my 1st gear isnt picking up like usual..and my 2nd gear tends to lag on the clutch..let me know what you guys think is wrong..

sounds about right... probably got a exhasut leak... flex pipe almost certainly, get it checked out.

check it out, flex pipe am thinking, watch out.....can be expensive

I had to get my flex replaced (85$ CAD because i was in too much of a hurry to weld a new one on myself)

However, couldnt it also be a plugged Cat? (or would that throw a fault code on the ecu?)

How much does this usually cost??And can one from the junkyard replace it??

..YOu know..im just trying to save some money..

unless you can tig(?) weld, get it done at a shop.
