i listened to the left muffler and it sounds a lot different and louder than the right one. the right one is how its supposed to sound. i think its a leak somwhere, it sounds really bad tho...

well it depends where it is! is it a bolt together joint? if so mabe a new gasket would help. is a clamp fitting thats leaking? or a welded joint? if its one of the last 2 if you dont have a welder any muffler shop could fix it for you. if its the muffler it self you may need a new one
