Angry what happend???

A few different problems just popped up in the past week , a week ago i had just a magnaflow exhaust installed and the resinators removed, not a catback just mufflers for now, since having that installed, ive noticed when its in 3rd gear roughly just below 40mph cruising speed when i press the accellerator just alittle it hesitates alittle up & down until i really punch it. And it wistles alittle after the rpms come down, down breathing enough? Another problem i noticed now, seperate from the exhaust is on the highway it wobbles now? if anyone has any ideas that would be awsome thanks

Reset your PCM so the engine can relearn with the new exhaust.

Also, exhaust should make it wobble unless they improperly achored the exhaust.

You gotta keep on slapping the stick to the left till you get to 1st gear. They all start in 4th.

allright thanks, i just wanted to make sure, even cruising around in say second gear itll still go straight to 4th.
Anyone got any suggestions for the wobble at high speeds? tie rod or something?

Tire needs to be balanced probably.

the thing is with the 300, the camber cannot be adjusted and that is why the alignment even when set dead on will still pull slightly to the right.

You will have to buy the camber adjustment kit which allows for the adjustments.

As for right now, it should be dead on and still pull a bit. Most of the time it isn't the front pulling, it is the crown in the road.
