Hi people I have a magnex s/s exhaust fitted to my 6 but I recently had it welded due to cracking near centre box it has since cracked again in a similar place
Does this suggest my lower engine mount is bo@#&*ed??
If so what do you recommend

Can also be fatigue due to the silencer cans being wafer thin, I gusseted my Scorpion to stop this happening.

EDITED: Speeling error
