I installed a Maintec aftermarket exhaust on my car in August. Now that it's colder, I only see one side spewing exhaust when I start it in the morning. I'm wondering if others see this too. I remember the stock exhaust exiting from both sides last winter.
 
I just had a chance to check it with my hand. There's definitely a lot more exhaust coming out the passenger side than driver side at idle.
 
It turned out that one of the valves was stuck open - which I didn't think could happen based on how strong the spring is - but thats what the issue was.

Good to know thanks for the update
