Hi I just had my friend weld my new muffler on to replace my old muffler. After he welded it on we blew air threw the exhaust and sprayed water and soap on the weld. There were about 2-3 spots where it would bubble up very slightly, as the holes were pin sized. We can't tell any difference in sound or anything. I am wondering if this will affect MPG or the performance of the muffler? Thank you.
