Verocious took care of it with no problems. I emailed the pictures on the wensday and had a reply back by Thursday morning. They have great customer service.

Why would you weld your test pipes to your y-pipe? The whole point of it is the flex. Thats why it cracked.

Next time when it comes with bolts, just bolt it on and it won't crack.

I am making my exhaust from the headers to the mid pipe one section. My 928 i had a pipe from the manifolds back the end of the car with the muffler with no flex pipe and it never cracked. It was on the car for 5 years and it was fine. The engine in the Z just moves to much. I dont see how having extra flanges would help when the bolts do not flex...

The torque difference between a Z and a 928 is very different. You need to have a flex section in the exhaust period.

If you want it to crack, keep on doing what your doing. If you want to make a smart move, get good test pipes, and a y-pipe and bolt them on. Don't weld everything together, which is a useless idea especially on the Z.

Eh i had two flex pipes in it did you not see from the pictures. I don't see how the hell that is going to differ from having bolts in between the resonator and the flex pipes???

What i am going to do is use four flex pipes and the cat bracket (two before the bracket and two after it). 2 resonators, into a universal Y pipe, then a muffler then connect the muffler to the midpipe and make some exhaust hangers where it attaches near the midpipe. I'm not spending 800$ on high end test pipes and a ypipe when i can make my own for alot cheaper. If you search you even see name brand pipes like turbo xs breaking.
