Just wanted to report that the problem is solved....the cat was stopped up...cut it off and it was clogged up...put new dual exhaust with flowmaster 44's...never knew a 3.0 could sound so mean...no more problems with it blowing the hoses off and runs 150% better..i never realized how much power loss there was..weird thing is it never ran hot or threw a CEL!! Thanks for the great info from everyone.
