Dammit, I seem to have developed a gross vibrating buzzing noise somewhere in my exhaust sytem. I have a feeling one of the bolts holding the catback to the midpipe may have snapped off (I wasn't using the OEM hardware) and this is where the vibrations are coming from.
At least I hope this is it. I've got no CEL's and the car seems to be running fine but the fact that I won't be able to check this out until tomorrow night is killing me!
Any other ideas?

SO I just got home and my car wont start......
So i got to turn it on.....and this is what happens...
1. My car sounds like it wants to turn on.... but doesnt
2. I thought it was my battery (OPTIMA YELLOW), but my lights dont die or dim at allllll.....like normal cars would and also.... I cant jump start it because you are not suppose to jump start DRY CELL BATTERIES from what i heard..
3. I talked with TOPGEAR8, and asked him about COIL, PLUG, WIRES...
HE TOLD ME:
1. Diagnostic check DIY= POP HOOD, PULL PLUG OFF, CHECK COIL, IF ITS WHITE its shot....need new coil.....
and COILS are easy to change\
(maybe its flooded according to UNFORGIVEN>")

I've jumped my car before (Optima Yellow) and it's perfectly fine
Topgear's diagnosis method for your coils is CRAP. The white marks have NEVER been proven to be an indicator of failure.
sounds flooded though
