   my exhaust was blowing...
   
   i took it to the garage the other week and it had a new centre section on it...
   
   blowing stopped.... for like 4 days...
   
   spoke to my mate and he said it could be the engine mounts is this right?

   if your engine mounts are worn your engine will rock more back and forward on acceleration and deceleration and gear changes but your rubbers on your exhaust are there to help your exhaust move with the engine etc. get on ramp ad see if your have any movement in exhaust rubbers also check clamps on new centre section is correct length . if it rocks back and forward and its too short will eventually pull exhaust apart
