yer thats what happened to the owner before me. he had to do this several times. the center boxes are a chap design and i think they might have even changed them now. but he had to pay to get the exhaust posted back to them. he was with otu a car for quite a long time as scorpion dragged there arse. he eventually got the part back and they credited his account. but they wnat proof of purchase and the garantee number or slip.________________________________________ ph3 gti-6 china blue- mint conditionph2 gti-6 nile blue K.I.A dec 2010 |

Mine fatigued and cracked too, I knocked up some gusset plates to stop the flexing after I had fixed all the cracks, been good as gold ever since. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

I had the original prototype (sp?) new design centre section when mine broke for the third time. I have still got the system on there but it's not quite right, definately split somewhere, am yet to investigate properly.________________________________________ Proud member of the ASTOR Owners Club |

It will keep going till you gusset it mate, the endplates on the cans are too thin and they flex, sooner or later a crack is inevitable.________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.
