Default Anyone losing their hearing from their exhausts?

I think I'm starting to lose hearing in both ears from my exhaust, people seem to talk softer, can't hear people that well on my cell phone anymore . . . . . . . . am I a few sandwiches short of a picnic here or does anyone else experience hearing loss from loud exhausts????

If my car wasn't in the shop for 6 weeks now, I'm sure I would be there by now!

Dilemmas, dilemmas . . . . . rip out the exhaust? or yell into my cell phone because I think other people can't hear me because I can't hear but in reality I'm just deaf???

T1R with no cat, not really an extremely loud exhaust but I think I'm losing hearing nonetheless

You might want to get Chipperman's soundproofing kit. I'm sure putting your cat back in would help out as well.

WHA? Can you speak up a little bit?

You could always try wearing ear plugs whilst driving

I have a set of earplugs in my car to deal with some of the droning.
