okay...i dont know what it is...i initially thought catalytic converter or exhaust. But here's my symptoms, just throw me some ideas

- Car smells like exhaust fumes
- Bad gas mileage
- Loud hissing sound when throttling
- Between 3k-4k RPM's the car shudders and lurches a lot and I either have to keep the RPM's a little higher or a little lower.
- Loss of power/torque

GO!
