UT-R Resonated Test Pipes, there is no better.
Did you have a few different sets of crawford high-flow cats that cracked? Were the test pipes a lot louder?

WOW I have the same Megan Racing Y-pipe, but damn I couldn't imagine it doing that! Did that happen AFTER installing test pipes or was it caused by just your catback

Is there a weld at that point on the Y-pipe? Very odd place for it to break...

won't help... i had a tC and used their springs... back dropped around 3".. was only supposed to drop 2"... damn car looked like a boat.... a$$ end was always dragging on stuff.... i had e-mailed them pics... sent them e-mails... called them (secretary always said someone i needed to speak with was in a meeting... she's very good at her job!) and never got a response... i will never buy another Megan Racing product in my life... even if it was a shift boot.... thing would surely rip to shreads between the first shift from 1st to
2nd. Sorry about your experience... good luck trying to get them to deal with it.
